ode copyutil

Hi everybody,

I am taking a backup of a b2600 workstation (10.20 HP-UX) of its 18G hard drive.
I am using the ode copyutil utility and for 3 hours the backup proceed only 20%.
Is it ode copyutil so extremely slow or there is something going wrong?

Thank you

Re: ode copyutil

coppyutil is an old tool, that was mainly aimed at being used in the pre-Ignite/UX days, for doing system upgrades.
Various issues were always found with this utility, and it is NOT a fast utility.
I would strongly advise against using it, as it is also sometimes unreliable.
Use Ignite/UX and it's utilities to do make_tape_recovery systems.
