Backup procedure¾DSPERU DOCUSP 3.74 The following information and equipment are required prior to starting the backup. · The root password · A tape drive connected and powered on with a blank tape inserted. Ensure the tape is write-enabled (write-protect tab in the closed position). NOTE: The backup overwrites the tape cartridge that is inserted. Ensure that no valuable data is present on the tape if it is not blank. The tape is overwritten with no warning. NOTE: The system is rebooted during the backup process. Ensure that the system is not actively receiving jobs before starting the backup. It is recommended that you set all queues to [Accept = No] and [Release = No] in the Queue Manager prior to initiating a backup. 1. Ensure a blank tape cartridge has been inserted into the tape drive. 2. Open a terminal window and logon as root. 3. From the /export/home/xrxusr directory, enter ls to list all files. Verify that the file btt is listed. If it is not, repeat the DSPERU installation procedure described in the previous section. 4. Enter sh btt to initiate the backup. The system reboots and starts the backup. If the system returns the message btt: not found, verify that you are in the right directory by entering pwd to verify your location. If you are in a different directory, enter the following command to change to the correct one. cd /export/home/xrxusr The system generates a message approximately every 10 minutes during the backup with an estimate of how long it will take to complete the backup from that point. NOTE: If all the data cannot be stored on one cassette, the system pauses when it detects that the tape is full, and displays messages similar to the following: DUMP: End-of-tape detected DUMP: 42.23% done, finished in 1:01 DUMP: Change Volumes: Mount volume '#2' on 'bugs:/dev/rmt/0n' DUMP: NEEDS ATTENTION: Is the new volume (#2) mounted on 'bugs:/dev/rmt/0n' and ready to go?: (yes or no) XEROX DOCUMENT SERVICES PLATFORM SERIES 5-5 GETTING STARTED
