If problems are discovered, correct them before
continuing.
Step 6. Mount a tape on a drive.
Step 7. Run the fsdump command with the arguments
appropriate to the platform as specified in the man
page. Enter the destination file or drive and any
optional arguments if appropriate.
The
fsdump utility prompts the user to change tapes
if more than one tape is required. A sequence number
is given each tape, starting at 1.
• Change tapes when prompted.
• Label tapes with the sequence number so they
can be restored in the proper sequence.
Restore Data
File systems that are checkpointed with the fsdump command
are restored with the
fsxrestore command.
If new relation points have been added, run fsdump so these
directories are located on the dump tape. The
fsaudit
command fails if all parents of relation points are not on the
dump tape.
The
fs_dump.file is also restored to disk for use by the
fsaudit -r command.
% fsdump -f /dev/rmt/tps0d3 /arch
Note
Restored files and directories have the same permissions as
when they were dumped.
