backup while running mwa

How can i prevent an exit code 4 on my fbackup when doing a total-system-backup while running mwa.
Now fbackups ends with an exit code 4 on /var/opt/perf/datafiles/logproc

Re: backup while running mwa

Hi,

When absolute consistency on a full backup is important, the system should probably be in single-user mode. However, incremental backups can be made while the system is in normal use

You could skip /var/opt/perf/datafiles/logproc. It's nature and location suggest that it's something you don't really need to back up anyway.

Re: backup while running mwa

Hi

i will advise you to shutdown the mwa with the command : mwa stop

if you want to do a full backup of the system you can do it with make_tape_recovery -A -x inc_enitre=vg00 .

also you can do it in single user mode - mount all the file system and do a fbackup on your system .
