The protocol for communication between dump and its slave processes - it would appear that when dumping to tape dump forks off children which read the disc, write to tape, and talk to each other via IPC and signals. The chunk of code actually complaining is at line 770 in /usr/src/sbin/dump/tape.c, and it appears to be upset about something the child has said back to it. I'd suggest that you check the you've not written too much data to the tape and filled it, had a tape error, etc. -- Adrian Wontroba To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
