hi all, im running into issues backing things up with tar directly to /dev/sa0. here's a clip of the mail i get from my backup script: -- I used a command of /bin/sh -c '/usr/bin/tar --totals --exclude /usr/local/nfs -cf /dev/sa0 /var /etc /usr/local /root 2>&1' to archive everything Here's what it told me: /usr/bin/tar: Removing leading `/' from member names /usr/bin/tar: /var/run/log: socket ignored /usr/bin/tar: /var/run/printer: socket ignored /usr/bin/tar: /usr/local/share/sqwebmail/var/authdaemon/socket: socket ignored /usr/bin/tar: /usr/local/www/logs/gcache: socket ignored Total bytes written: 1664460800 (1.6GB, 426kB/s) /usr/bin/tar: /dev/sa0: Wrote only 0 of 10240 bytes /usr/bin/tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now -- i found an archive dating back to 3.2 which exhibits the same problem, and attributes it to the sa driver: http://bim.bsn.com/~jhs/src/bsd/fixes/FreeBSD/gnats/kern/12062 im wondering if anyone else has run into this problem? the tar file on the tape finds an 'Unexpected EOF in archive' and gives up, on what im guessing to be the last file. uname -a: FreeBSD doc.chasma.net 4.6-STABLE FreeBSD 4.6-STABLE #1: Fri Aug 23 19:37:18 GMT 2002 tom@doc.chasma.net:/usr/local/nfs/obj/usr/local/nfs/src/sys/doc i386 any ideas? let me know if you need some more info. thanks, -tom To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
