IGNITE backup Warnings

Jim Morakeas — Sun, 23 May 2004 19:20:25 GMT

I have run an IGNITE on one of our hosts and I have received the following WARNING (see attached log)

What do these mean, do I consider this a successfull backup.

It is a paritially successful backup, meaning you could still boot from it and build a system. In saying that, the problem your encountering stems from a patch related problem pertaining to 'pax/tar'. You see, you can recover from an ignite tape also using tar. Given the version of ignite your using, the related pax/tar binaries maybe quite old. Suggest you get the latest and install them.

You'd probably want these:

PHCO_30150 for 'pax'

PHCO_29229 for 'tar'
