ontape problems
we are attempting to run ontape (level 0) on a sun sparc center 2000 running
solaris 2.4 and online 7.10.UC1. it runs for about 3 hours before displaying
the following message to the screen:
20 percent done. Archive failed - function write to tape failed code -1 errno 2
Program over.
the online log reports that the archive was aborted by client. the instance
being archived is about 30 gig in size. for whatever reason, our sys admin
swears there is a problem with getting messages written to the
/usr/adm/messages file, so there are no system messages being logged. we
have tried several different block sizes and as informix and root with the
same results...
any ideas? anyone else running the same config with ontape working?
