marc suggested that I send more details here, just so they'd get into
the discuss meeting for future reference. The following is probably of
no interest right now...
Everything was copied onto two tapes: one is here, and one is with IS
Offsite Data Storage in Building 11. The tapes are labeled with the
contents and the archive format. It took about three hours to write
each tape.
I put the list of files into /afs/sipb/admin/text/backup-archives.
Since this (potentially) contains names of users' private files, I
only set 'l' permission on this directory.
The tapes were made mainly to archive the removed volumes. There's no
particular reason why some other files and directories were included,
but others weren't. Usually I included things that seemed fairly
static at present, and that we might as well have another backup copy
of. Also, I only included volumes that were entirely readable; I
didn't change any acls so that files could be copied onto tape.
The user volumes were ones that hadn't been updated in the past few
months, and were owned by members. (If you check, you'll probably
notice that most were last updated on May 24, 1992. See [0691] for
details on this.) I didn't do anything about the home directories of
guest accounts -- I believe someone else is working on this.
Anyway, I've included the entire backup script below.
