To make a level 0 dump of /home on a 2 GB tape to a remote tape device, use:
filer> dump 0ufbB adminhost:/dev/rst0 63 2097151 /home
To make a level 0 dump of /home on a 2 GB tape to a local tape drive (no rewind
device, unit zero, highest density) use:
filer> dump 0ufbB nrst0a 63 2097151 /home
To make a level 0 dump of the entire file system to a local tape drive (no rewind
device, unit zero, highest density), with each tape file in the dump being less than
2 GB in size, without operator intervention, using a tape stacker, with four tape
files written per tape, assuming that the dump requires no more than 10GB, use:
filer> dump 0ufbB nrst0a,nrst0a,nrst0a,urst0a,rst0a 63 2097151 /
This will:
write the first three files to the norewind device, so that they, and the next dump
done after them, will appear consecutively on the tape;
write the next file to the unload/reload device. This will cause the stacker to
rewind and unload the tape after the file has been written and then load the next
tape.
write the last file to the rewind device, so that the tape will be rewound after the
dump is complete.
To back up all files and directories in a volume named engineering that are not in
a qtree you created, use:
filer> dump 0ufQ rst0a /vol/engineering
To run the dump command through rsh, enter the following command on a
trusted host:
adminhost# rsh filer dump 0ufbB adminhost:/dev/rst0 63 2097151
