Dear all, i've a problem with a dump on level 9 for a filesystem. Scenario : a) System with 2 filesystem ( /home and /backup ). b) every night a batch process makes a dump of /home on a file living on /backup. On saturday it makes a dump on level 0 and the other nights it makes a dump on level 9. c) this procedure has worked for 1.5 years without any problem. d) This procedure is working well for all the other filesystems of this server. It's working also for other servers without problem. e) the batch execute dump with these parameters : # dump <level>uLBf 1000000000 - <mount-point> f) The server is a Freebsd 5.4-p6 vanilla. g) /etc/dumpdates seems to be ok (/home is /dev/da0s1g. /dev/da0s1a 0 Sat Mar 11 19:28:32 2006 /dev/da0s1d 0 Sat Mar 11 19:29:07 2006 /dev/da0s1e 0 Sat Mar 11 19:29:22 2006 /dev/da0s1f 0 Sat Mar 11 19:29:24 2006 /dev/da0s1g 0 Sat Mar 11 19:40:24 2006 /dev/da0s1a 9 Wed Mar 15 03:00:01 2006 /dev/da0s1d 9 Wed Mar 15 03:00:03 2006 /dev/da0s1e 9 Wed Mar 15 03:00:08 2006 /dev/da0s1f 9 Wed Mar 15 03:00:11 2006 /dev/da0s1g 9 Wed Mar 15 03:02:43 2006 h) filesystem is fsck ok. The problem : Level 9 backup does a complete backup as it does level 0. I did a random control and everything seems to be copied, also if the file date is VERY OLD comparing with backup date. There isn't enought space in /backup to make 6 complete backup of /home : i am in continous disk-full risk ... Anybody has any idea ? Best regards, Paolo Tealdi Ing.
