Re: Unable to verify data on DDS-3
RECOVERY=/appdb/recovery.log; export RECOVERY
TAPEDRIVE=/dev/rmt0h; export TAPEDRIVE
APPDBDIR=/appdb; export APPDBDIR
APPDBRECOVERY=/appdb; export APPDBRECOVERY
APPDIR=/app; export APPDIR
It has always worked in the past?
Kind Regards,
Phil.

Re: Unable to verify data on DDS-3
From what I can see there are 2 CRON jobs:

Re: Unable to verify data on DDS-3
What do I need to do to get the tape drive back online and have the ability to read to and write from it?
Many Thanks,
Phil.

Re: Unable to verify data on DDS-3
check scsi-jumper or switch-settings. is it id-1 ?
check termination on the scsi-bus. is there a terminator or is a jumper/switch on the drive so the drive supplies terminiation.
check LED's on the drive, do these say the unit is online? does it need cleaning?
check type / brand of cartridges. are these really DDS-3?
Is it by accident write-protected?
try an older cartridge which you know worked. does this work? (you want to be able to restore an old backup).

Re: Unable to verify data on DDS-3
(new + old media). I was working remotely so was not aware the tape had ejected (offline). Popped the tape back in mt online rane OK.
I ran tar cvf /dev/rmt0h /somefiles followed by mt rewind followed by tar tvf /dev/rmt0h
All commands executed OK.
I am confused regards the CRON jobs (backup routines) if they are not writing to tape?
Many thanks for your time and efforts.
Phil.

Re: Unable to verify data on DDS-3
unless you use a special shell wich does interpret a line starting with "#", both in autobackup and weeklybackup the line using the tape is "commented out" and not executed.
so in the two lines :
tar -cvB -C /mtms . -C /mtmsdb . -C /mtmsdb1 . -C /mtmsdb2/mtmsdb1 .
and
# find /mtms /mtmsdb /mtmsdb1 -print | cpio -ocBvdum > $TAPEDRIVE
the tar is executed and outputs to a directory and the find is not executed.
NB! i'm also puzzled about the "set +x" at the beginning of the script.
I know the command "set -x" in a shell script, not "set +x"!
