Hi all,
I have a system with TRU64 system (quite old). I use to run script to make save of important system partitions.
The command to save the partition "/" is :
/sbin/vdump -0uDf /mnt/Sauvegarde/dump/slash.dump.0 /. (/mnt/Sauvegarde is NFS mounted, but this is no matter)
This script ran for several years. About 2 months ago, it issues some errors like follows :
Code:
path : /.
dev/fset : root_domain#root
type : advfs
advfs id : 0x3dfaf4f8.00078180.1
vdump: Date of last level 0 dump: the start of the epoch
vdump: Dumping directories
vdump: unable to get info for file <./cluster/members/member0/dev/ttyp3>; [9] Bad file number
vdump: unable to get info for file <./cluster/members/member0/dev/pts/3>; [9] Bad file number
vdump: unable to get info for file <./cluster/members/member0/dev/pts/3>; [9] Bad file number
vdump: unable to get info for file <./cluster/members/member0/dev/ttyp3>; [9] Bad file number
vdump: Dumping 331712942 bytes, 464 directories, 4505 files
vdump: Dumping regular files
vdump: unable to get info for file <./cluster/members/member0/dev/pts/3>; [9] Bad file number
vdump: unable to get info for file <./cluster/members/member0/dev/ttyp3>; [9] Bad file number
I notice that the special files /dev/pts/3 and /dev/ttyp3 don't exist
Has anybody an idea about what is the cause of this problem and how to solve it ? Will a reboot of the machine solve the problem ?
Thank you for your answers.
Alain

So my question is can I... (3 Replies)
Sceduled backups with vdump have been delayed as a mounted system had crashed while I was away for 2 weeks. Now there are 5 simultaneous vdumps running very slowly. The full system backup usually takes a whole weekend.
Can I safely kill these? (I will have to live without a backup untill next... (4 Replies)
As far as I know vdump command is used only on Tru64 (correct me if I'm wrong). The question is: what is the command on aix that does the same thing (logically speaking)?
Tnx. (1 Reply)
