Procedures that are done by the customer after the upgrade

R3V8

To copy specific files from an R3V8 system:

1. Insert the most recent CMSADM backup tape from the old system into the tape drive.

2. Enter:

cd /

3. Enter the following command for each file you want to copy:

cpio -icmudv -C 10240 -I /dev/rmt/X -M “Remove current tape, insert tape number %d, press ENTER” “<path>/<file_name>

The <path>/<file_name> is the relative path to the file being copied.

The X is either 0 or 1, depending on how many tape drives are connected to the system. If you have only one tape drive, use 0. If you have more than one tape drive, use the following commands to determine which tape drive you should use:

mt -f /dev/rmt/0 status mt -f /dev/rmt/1 status

The tape drive that contains the CMSADM backup tape reports a status similar to the following:

<tape drive

model name>:

 

 

sense key(0x6)= Unit Attention

residual= 0

retries= 0

file no=

0

block no= 0

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

For example, a command to copy the file /accounting/invoices would be:

cpio -icmudv -C 10240 -I /dev/rmt/X -M “Remove current tape, insert tape number %d, press ENTER” “accounting/invoices”
