Re: Device files did not show up?
Evelyn
Have you installed the stape driver in the kernel?
Under HPUX you can use insf to re-create the device files
if they are not there.
As for an automatic ontape script you can use cron to
schedule a script which contains the ontape command:
#!/bin/sh
#
INFORMIXDIR=/opt/informix
INFORMIXSERVER=dwh_shm
INFORMIXSQLHOSTS=$INFORMIXDIR/etc/sqlhosts TBCONFIG=tbconfig
PATH=$PATH:$INFORMIXDIR/bin LOGFILE=/tmp/backup.log
export INFORMIXDIR INFORMIXSERVER INFORMIXSQLHOSTS TBCONFIG PATH
echo "Backup Started "`date`>$LOGFILE
echo "\\n0" | ontape -s -L 0 | head -100 >>$LOGFILE 2>&1
if [ $? -ne 0 ]
then
echo "Backup Failed "`date`>>$LOGFILE
else
echo "Backup Completed "`date`>>$LOGFILE
fi
