fbackup

[Piotr Kirklewski]

Hi there

/usr/sbin/fbackup -0i /usr -e /usr/lib -f /dev/rmt/c0t0d0BEST

Is very cool :)

My question is how to back up this file to a file instead streamer.

Cheers

Hi Piotr,

cd /sourcedir
fbackup -v -f /var/tmp/backupfile -i .

/var/tmp/backupfile is your archive file
After -i there is a dot to denote it should backup from that dir.

Rasheed.

Same, except "-f file". See "man fbackup"?

May be I was not clear reg. to your specific question.

/usr/sbin/fbackup -0i /usr -e /usr/lib -f /var/tmp/your-backupfile


You can use -v verbose also if you want to see the file contents on the screen while copying.
