Re: [Networker] Quick question on File System Devices for staging

Hi Joel

I haven't tested this, but I believe that the answer is that, yes, it should
work as you describe.  I'm not aware of any gotchas, but will look forward
to you telling us about them after you've tried this :).

Thanks!

Subject: [Networker] Quick question on File System Devices for staging


Hey All,

I would like to get around the odd limitation of not being able to stage
savesets to tape while the File System device has an incoming saveset
stream.  Is there any reason not to have multiple directories setup as
FS devices under one physical device?

For Example:

/dev/dsk/c3t0d0s2 is mounted on /fsdevices
3 directories call:
/fsdevices/fd00
/fsdevices/fd01
/fsdevices/fd02

FS devices setup pointing to the above 3 directories.

Would this allow me to start staging savesets on FS device fd00 and fd01
even if data is still being written to fd02?

Any known gotchas in this configuration?

Thanks,

Joel
