fbackup

[Rajesh Patel]

Hello,

Has anyone tired to configure fbackup to get the dates from a different file other than the default /var/adm/fbackupfiles/dates.

Thanks
Rajesh

the -d flag with fbackup allows you to specify a different path to the dates file.

do a man on fbackup and search for the -d or dates

[Tony Constantine_1]

use the -d option, do a man on fbackup

Using the option -d path ( when you use fbackup command )you can specify a different path.

You may use fbackup and specify the database file other than /var/adm/fbackupfiles/dates.

1) First create the directory you are going to use:
# mkdir /tmp1/fbackfiles
# touch /tmp1/fbackupfiles/dayts

2) Using the -d option run fbackup:
# fbackup -0 -u -f /dev/destination -g /something/graphfile -d/tmp1/fbackupfiles/dayt
