Jon and others are correct that this message is coming from ufsdump when it
is run as a user other than root. For instance when run as "amanda":
$ /usr/sbin/ufsdump 0Ssf 1048576 - /dev/md/rdsk/d92
Unable to create temporary directory in any of the directories listed
below:
/tmp/
/var/tmp/
/
Please correct this problem and rerun the program.
43413422080
and when run as root:
/usr/sbin/ufsdump 0Ssf 1048576 - /dev/md/rdsk/d92
43413422080
When I do "truss -o /var/tmp/truss.output /usr/sbin/ufsdump 0Ssf 1048576 -
/dev/md/rdsk/d92" the following results:
lstat64(".rlg.10aqFe", 0xFFBFE2B8) Err#2 ENOENT
mkdir("/tmp/.rlg.10aqFe", 0) = 0
mkdir("/tmp/.rlg.10aqFe/.rlg.10aqFe", 0) = 0
mount("/dev/md/dsk/d92", "/tmp/.rlg.10aqFe/.rlg.10aqFe",
MS_RDONLY|MS_DATA|MS_OP
TIONSTR, "ufs", 0xFFBFEBBC, 4) = 0
umount2("/dev/md/dsk/d92", 0x00000000) = 0
rmdir("/tmp/.rlg.10aqFe/.rlg.10aqFe") = 0
rmdir("/tmp/.rlg.10aqFe") = 0
and when run as "amanda":
Truss will not work on suid applications.
So, you can see that ufsdump is attempting to create directories with names
of the form .rlg.*
Now, my permissions on ufsdump are as follows:
# ls -lad /usr/sbin/ufsdump
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 21 Sep 22 12:51 /usr/sbin/ufsdump ->
../lib/fs/ufs/ufsdump
and
# ls -lad /usr/lib/fs/ufs/ufsdump
-r-sr-xr-x 1 root bin 87508 Apr 12 2004
/usr/lib/fs/ufs/ufsdump
