Re: Backing up via NFS.
2003-12-15 17:27:07
I am somewhat a novice at this whole thing, but....
I believe that Amanda will only back up complete filesystems in the same
way that dump (ufsdump) does.
Try dumping your HU/UX file systems to a staging area on an nfs mounted
drive and let Amanda back them up from there.
You might run into issues (depending on your version of nfs) that will
prevent dumps > 1GB being created.

Hello, all. I've got some HP/UX 11.11 and 11.00 that I want to back
up. However, I've run into some problems:
1) I can't find an Amanda client to install on 11.11 and 11.00 systems.
2) I tried compiling, and failed. Someone sent me a patch, but I
haven't been able to get it working yet.
So, I gave up (for the moment) trying to install the Amanda client on
the HP machines, and, instead, decided to
mount them via NFS from a Linux box with the full, functioning client.
However, I've got one problem that I just
can't figure out: amdump gets "/" just fine, however, stuff off my
mounted RAID ("/raid0") dies with the following:
ursa SM5b-Z lev 0 FAILED [disk SM5b-Z offline on ursa?]
Any idea on where I'm going astray?
Note that I can "ls", "du", etc., the directory just fine from the Linux
box.
Thanks,
