Archive-name: unix/dump/iris-dump/1991-03-09 Archive: ftp.brl.mil:/info-iris/dump.tar.Z [128.63.16.158] Original-posting-by: mike@BRL.MIL (Mike Muuss) Original-subject: BSD dump/restore for SGI Reposted-by: emv@msen.com (Edward Vielmetti, MSEN) I am please to announce that the port of the Berkeley DUMP and RESTORE utilities to the SGI is now available. This work is largely the effort of Ken Lalonde at the University of Toronto; Ajit Mayya at SGI and I have had the privelege of making additional contributions. Please note that this software is provided "as is", and you use it at your own risk. I recommend that you conduct a variety of tests of this software before entrusting the backup of your system to this software. This software is available *only* via anonymous FTP to host FTP.BRL.MIL. Use user name "anonymous", and your E-mail address as the password. Then, type: binary cd info-iris get dump.tar.Z get Backup.sh quit Note that "Backup.sh" is the Shell script that the operators at BRL use; you may find it convenient to use as a baseline for your own site. Best, -Mike
