Raw device backup

[penzk001]

hi,

I have the following raw.nsr to backup raw devices:

type: savepnpc;
precmd: dd if=/dev/lvdb01.dbf of=/dev/rmt1.1 bs=2048 conv=sync;
pstcmd: "echo ready", "/bin/sleep 5";
timeout: "12:00:00";

I want would like to use legato commands instead of the dd, as this would allow me
to schedule the backup.

Can someone please help me.
Thanks

You can use savepnpc to do scheduled backups. Look in the Admin guide for details.

Hi,

You have to use the Networker directive "rawasm". Create a File called .nsr in your / directory with the following lines:

<< /dev >>

rawasm: lvdb01.dbf

If a scheduled backup of your client starts, networker automatically saves these files or filesystems raw.
