Re: ignite Backup: Listing all backups

When i use the -p options it creates a preview and creates the directory with the name of that time stamp. It is not a date_time directory which is created. A link, latest is also created to this directory.

Then i do a make_tape_recovery -r to resume with the backup.

and ls -l on /var/opt/ignite/recovery is something like this....

total 5704

-r--r--r-- 1 root other 485 May 10 2002 passwd.makrec
-rw-r--r-- 1 root sys 110 Mar 17 01:26 previews

March 17 is the last date when i created my archive. To add up i don't have a file makerec.log2 in my /var/opt/ignite/logs directory.

man make_tape_recovery for more details

With Best wishes
