- RH5.1 on client/server
- dump/restore on client/server
- server's root has passwordless ssh access to client root
my goal is to dump client's disks to server's tape. i would like to
avoid using the operator scheme, where i would have to
change permissions on rmt/rrestore, as well as disk devices (which is
necessary to enable the client operator can do remote dump to server).
as root@server, i do the following:
SERVER# (ssh CLIENT /sbin/dump 0uBf 4000000 - / ) | dd of=/dev/nst0 bs=1024
dump completes successfully. i can't restore, however:
restore if /dev/nst0
resync restore, skipped 1 blocks
Checksum error 22513526310, inode 2023 file <directory file - name unknown>
resync restore, skipped 15 blocks

resync restore, skipped 15 blocks
Checksum error 10255611721, inode 6049 file <directory file - name unknown>
Segmentation fault
am i using incorrect block size, or is dd mangling the dump stream?
alternative solutions welcome.
