Solaris 7 newbie tape backup question
Hello all,
I have an ss20 running Solaris 7, with an attached 4mm tape drive. The machine has one 1.2GB SCSI HDD. I would like to backup other machines to tape, but I can't do a stopover on the ss20s hard disk, as there is virtually no space available. Is there a way I can make the tape drive available over the network, so I don't have to write archives to the local hard disk, then to tape, but directly to tape? I hope this is clear enough; thanks in advance.

Let's say the hostname of your ss20 is server1 and the tape device is 0.
To backup all /opt files from server2 use server1:/dev/rmt/0n # hostname server2 # ufsdump 0cf server:/dev/rmt/0n /opt See the man page for ufsdump (and/or tar) - a .rhosts file will be needed (I usually had one created via the scripts I ran just before the dump and then delete them afterwards as it is a security concern) along with the IP and host names in /etc/hosts for each server involved.

Thanks,
What I want is backup data from local machine to remote which have tape driver with root account. As I read, we need to have local hostname in .rhosts of remote machine for this task. I created .rhosts file.
