Could you please try to format your posts to achieve some readability? And could you please phrase your question in a coherent sentence instead of lumping together some screen-output without so much formatting as some line breaks to structure it and leave it to us to figure out what belongs what?
While i believe you might have a valid question up to now your posts are close to spam because of the way they are presented and i am quite disinclined in trying to understand much less answering a question so poorly presented.
(and, btw.: there is a "code"-tag for screen output)
Thanks for your consideration.

Hi,
Is it possible to use mkdvd to create a bootable DVD using a mksysb on tape as the source image?
On the system concerned, we don't have enough free space to create the mksysb to file first, so would like to use the existing tape mksysb backup.
The DVD disk/s will then be used to boot a... (4 Replies)

svn-fast-backup
svn-fast-backup(1) General Commands Manual svn-fast-backup(1)
NAME
svn-fast-backup - very fast backup for Subversion fsfs repositories.
SYNOPSIS
svn-fast-backup [-q] [-k{N|all}] [-f] [-t] [-s] repos_path backup_dir
DESCRIPTION
svn-fast-backup uses rsync snapshots for very fast backup of a Subversion fsfs repository at repos_path to backup_dir/repos-rev, the latest
revision number in the repository. Multiple fsfs backups share data via hardlinks, so old backups are almost free, since a newer revision
of a repository is almost a complete superset of an older revision.
This is good for replacing incremental log-dump+restore-style backups because it is just as space-conserving and even faster; there is no
inter-backup state (old backups are essentially caches); each backup directory is self-contained. It has the same command-line interface
as svn-hot-backup(1) (if you use --force), but only works for fsfs repositories.
svn-fast-backup keeps 64 backups by default and deletes backups older than these; this can be adjusted with the -k option.
OPTIONS
-h, --help
Shows some brief help text.
-q, --quiet
Quieter-than-usual operation.
-k, --keep=N
Keep a specified number of backups; the default is to keep 64.
-k, --keep=all
Do not delete any old backups at all.
-f, --force
Make a new backup even if one with the current revision exists.
-t, --trace
Show actions.
-s, --simulate
Don't perform actions.
