trying to do dump to remote tape drive
Hi -
I am simply trying to dump a local filesystem to a remotely hosted tape drive. The remote host is a RHEL 5 machine also. It complains of "no route" but the route IS there: [root@louise /]# dump 0uBf 160000000 thelma:/dev/nst0 /boot DUMP: thelma: No route to host DUMP: login to thelma as root failed. [root@louise /]# [root@louise /]# ping thelma PING thelma (192.168.54.30) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from thelma (192.168.54.30): icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.037 ms 64 bytes from thelma (192.168.54.30): icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=0.011 ms 64 bytes from thelma (192.168.54.30): icmp_seq=3 ttl=64 time=0.010 ms 64 bytes from thelma (192.168.54.30): icmp_seq=4 ttl=64 time=0.010 ms |
dump(8) reports that it uses the program in /etc/rmt to perform remote dumps. For me, this is /usr/sbin/rmt.
You could try: Code:
RMT=/usr/sbin/rmt dump 0uBf 160000000 -f root@thelma:/dev/nst0 /boot -v |
