Re: Rewinding tapeless "tapes": why? error?
2003-07-14 23:13:02
"00001.server._home.1" is equivalent to one file on a tape.
You don't rewind one "tape file", you rewind the entire tape.
Your "tapes" are "file1", "file2", ...
However, each should have a directory named "data".
And the incremental dump file you show above should
have been created in that "data" directory.
Hi Jon,
I thought using those "file*" would help simplify the long and complex
pathnames. It turned out otherwise.
I'm sorry for the misunderstanding. Here are the complete and correct
file names.
__changer.conf:
multieject 0
gravity 0
<...snip...>
firstslot 1
lastslot 6
slot 1 file:/Backup/DailySet1
slot 2 file:/Backup/DailySet2
<...snip...>
slot 6 file:/Backup/DailySet6
___disklist:
snook /Share incremental local
snook /home incremental local
<...snip...>
I had tried both ways:
1. "ammt -f /Backup/DailySet1/data/00001.snook._home.1 rewind" gives
this error
/Backup/DailySet1/data/00001.snook._home.1 rewind failed: Inappropriate
ioctl for device
2. "ammt -f file:/Backup/DailySet1/data/00001.snook._home.1 rewind" gives
file:/Backup/DailySet1/data/00001.snook._home.1 rewind failed: Not a
directory
Any ideas??
