I have a system with two RA81 disks. I need only one to run the
system and would like to use the other one as a backup. What's the
best way to make a copy disk-to-disk on a per day basis??
I've tried dump piped into restore and it takes forever. Likewise
with copying the 'c' partition using dd, even with big block sizes.
Also, I run into bad block problems on the RA's doing the platter
copy. This must be done on a not quiet quiescent system which is
another problem. (My best success has been to dump to tape and then
a restore). Any hints and syggestions would be appreciated.
