ignite warning

[Charles McCary]

Group,

Hi - got the following in the output from a make_tape_recovery, any ideas?
I'm interested in the WARNINGS

* Preparing to create a system archive

* Archiving contents of lmxap03s via tar image to local device/dev/rmt/0mn.
* Creation of system archive complete
NOTE: The following files are in the list of files that were on the
system, but they are no longer present. These files are not
included in the back-up:
/var/spool/cron/tmp/croutMTCa01078
/var/tmp/mailxAAAa04632

WARNING: Cannot find device file: 96
WARNING: Cannot find device file: 79
WARNING: Cannot find device file: 77
WARNING: Cannot find device file: 45
WARNING: Cannot find device file: 74
WARNING: Cannot find device file: 72

======= 04/04/02 07:17:13 CST make_tape_recovery completed successfully!

Hi

The
print_manifest command actually generates the
WARNINGS

Run it from command line and it updates

/var/opt/ignite/local/manifest/manifest.info

If you look you may find some devices with no size.

ioscan -fn will show probably missing device files for some devices.

cd /dev
insf -e

should stop the warnings

There are two kind of messages:

1- /var/tmp/mailxAAAa04632 . This is a temporary file. No Problem. On firsts releases of Ignite is was recomended to do make_recovery in single_user or at least when the system was not very loaded.

2-WARNING: Cannot find device file: 96 . NOt sure , but i think not problem too. All needed device files will be recreated at reinstall time.

manifest.info didn't show anything useful and ioscan shows everything claimed and ok.
