I am trying to back up two filesystems to the RS/6k tape drive: one is the local /u filesystem, and the other is a filesystem on a Sun 3/60 (SunOS 3.4). I have the following script: /etc/umount /u /etc/backup -f /dev/rmt0.1 -9 -u /u /etc/mount /u rsh host-sun /etc/dump 9ubf 500 host-ibm:/dev/rmt0.1 /sun-filesystem The flags for the Sun dump program mean: 9 -- level number u -- update /etc/dumpdates b -- blocking factor (500 in this case) f -- file (host-ibm:/dev/rmt0.1 in this case) When run individually, each backup works fine. When run together, however, via the script, the backup of the Sun filesystem overwrites the backup of the /u filesystem (even though rmt0.1 is specified). Has anyone successfully got the above scheme running? I need to use the backup in the by-inode format to preserve continuity in the lab. Regards, Rob Wargaski -- Robert E.
