Problem with Database backup
Hi! This is my first post and im not that familiar with UNIX but I'll try to explain my problem..
I have a server here at work running Open UNIX Release 8.0.0 It has a special application on it that I'm trying to run a database backup on. For the last 2 weeks this has failed.. Usually the backup takes 1 hour to run but now it failes after 8 hours (often have to reboot the machine in the morning for the users to be able to access the application again) I have the backup log that i can attach but its very large.. And im not sure it will say anything... I have some CPU and Disk activity output for you.. But my question is basicly is there some way i can see what is happening.. What the system is trying to write where? To find out why it failes? The backup has been running for 1h 45min as i write this and it have some heavy disk activity on the c0b0t0d0s1 "slice?" all the time.. Is this /dev/root partition/slice? Code:

I will attach a logfile from the database backup. A backup is started every night at 02:00 and usally takes 1 hour to complete.
I notice that the days before the backup starts to fail the backup takes longer and longer time. Last successful day before failure it took 6h 20min to complete. Not it gets interupted 10:14 every day if i do not reboot the server before that. (Means it runs 8h 14min and then abort) By the way.. The database is Informix. |
