Re: Restore System
I did a full backup of a server with tar using the following command: tar cpzf servername`date +%m%d%y`.tgz / I'm trying to restore it on another server with the following command: tar -xzpf /path to backup file The problem I'm running into is that the original system is has an IDE harddrive, and the new system is SCSI. I'm getting the following errors: dev/ad0: Can't restore device node: No such file or directory dev/ad0s1: Can't restore device node: No such file or directory dev/ad0s1a: Can't restore device node: No such file or directory dev/ad0s1b: Can't restore device node: No such file or directory dev/ad0s1c: Can't restore device node: No such file or directory dev/ad0s1d: Can't restore device node: No such file or directory dev/ad0s1e: Can't restore device node: No such file or directory Is there an easy way around this? Any help would greatly be appreciated. Look into the --exclude option for tar... --exclude pattern Exclude files matching the pattern (don't extract them, don't add them, don't list them). just skip everything beneath /dev/ -philip ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

What software you are running (uname -a). You should probably at least reread the Handbook on devices, device naming, backups (in particular dump and restore).

RE: Restore System
Thanks for all the help. I've added the -X option to tar and have a file containing all directories and files I don't wish to backup.
