[Networker] How to reinstall and backup at the same time a Linux machine?
2008-02-07 12:40:25
Hello,
We have a Linux client named 'machine1' (IP 10.10.10.10) declared in our
Legato server. The backups are running perfectly for it.
We are in the process of upgrade the hardware of this machine to a new
one. We have installed the new machine, we have named it 'machine1' (at
the OS level, hostname, etc.) and installed Legato client. The new
machine is connected to the network using a different IP 10.10.10.20.
At the DNS level we have created a new name 'new_machine1' and assigned
it the IP address 10.10.10.20.
In the Legato server we have added the new machine 'new_machine1' as we
would like to have backups while the installation process but ... we
can't. As we try to do a backup we get the following error:
* new_machine1:/ 1 retry attempted
* new_machine1:/ 39078:save: File index error: permission denied, `root'
on `new_machine1' must have remote access privilege to client machine1.
I suspect that the new machine when contacting Legato is using its real
name at the OS level (machine1) but we need to use its temporary name
for doing the backups while the reinstall process.
At the end we will shutdown the old 'machine1' and replace with the new
hardware. Then we will delete the 'new_machine1' client in Legato and
use the 'machine1' definition.
How can we do these temporary backups?
Thank you.
PS: Legato Server and client are 7.4.1. Server is Windows 2003 R2.
Client is OpenSuse Linux 10.3.
