configure NFS for daily backup.

[shoux]

Dear All,

I have 2 pseries server on AIX 6.1. Both servers are in same network and running a daily backup using tar command to tape.
if i want to run daily backup using only one tape for both server how it can be done? I have review all the post and it seem can be done using NFS method.Would appreciate if expert here could guide me on how to configure NFS on both server.

Thank you in advance.

Regards

on AIX 6.1 try

see link for more info

rdump -u -0 -f remotehost:/dev/rmt0 /myfs

remotehost ( where the tape drive resides)

/myfs is the filesystem

for more details do man rdump

or can try

tar -cvdf- pathname | rsh remotehost "dd of=/dev/rmt0 bs=blocksize"

pathname is where your files reside
