Ok... I thought I had solved the problem with a scsi tape drive I have on
one server. Now I am randomly getting strange errors:
DUMP: Date of this level 0 dump: Mon Nov 9 03:00:01 1998
DUMP: Date of last level 0 dump: the epoch
DUMP: Dumping /dev/sda1 (/) to /dev/nst0
DUMP: mapping (Pass I) [regular files]
DUMP: mapping (Pass II) [directories]
DUMP: estimated 65693 tape blocks on 0.02 tape(s).
DUMP: dumping (Pass III) [directories]
DUMP: End of tape detected
DUMP: Closing /dev/nst0
DUMP: Change Volumes: Mount volume #2
DUMP: fopen on /dev/tty fails: No such device or address
DUMP: The ENTIRE dump is aborted.
what the hell does "fopen on /dev/tty fails: No such device or address"
mean??
also I get:
/dev/nst0: I/O error
... when I try to 'mt -f /dev/nst0 offline'
This only happens some of the time, and it doesn't seem to be with any
particular tape(s)... Any ideas?
