Im trying to run a xfsdump to a remote backup server, but just getting errors which don't make sense to me...
1) I can ping the backup server fine, so I don't know why im getting "No route to host".
2) Im trying to dump to a flat-file on the backup server, so I don't know why it's trying to reference "rmt" commands for tape... There is no tape involved.
Code:
[root@centos7 ~]# /usr/sbin/xfsdump -l 0 -f backup:/backup/centos7/centos7.boot.2017-06-27.L0.xfsdump.tmp /boot
