do you use cron to backup at times in the week ?
this is one you can use
=================
mt-f /dev/rmt0 rewind
find /your filesystems -print |backup -iqvf /dev/rmt0.1
#(.1 prevents rewind )
you can create a script that will backup a list of file systems
Restore
======
tctl -f /dev/rmt0 rewind
restore -qvf /dev/rmt0 will restore all files no the tape
Restore files (only)
mt -f /dev/rmt0 feof restore Move to the next on the tape
restore -qvf /dev/rmt0 /filesytems/frans.txt file restoe only this file
Note !! 1.restore -xdvqf /dev/rmt0 /home/my/tools
The -x flag tells restore to extract files by their file name. The -d tells restore to extract all the files and subdirectories in the /home/my/tools directory. File and directory names must be specified as they are displayed when using the -T flag. If the directories do not exist, they are created.
