Thanks to : Chamkura, Balki" <Balki.Chamkura@sabre.com> The trick is to use mt rew before issing mt fsf command. I used mt fsf alone and it always give me I/O error. The fsf will position the tape drive to next ufsdump. If you have more than one ufsdump, make sure you count them accordingly. Thanks, ssefoen Here is the original question: TO All Helpers: Platform: E450 system running Solaris 2.8 Two servers (A and B) Server A has a tape drive. Wanting to ufsdump the file systems from Server B and append the dump to server A after server A completes its ufsdump Question: I was able to do ufsdump from server A to tape drive without problem. But when issing ufsdump remotely from server B to A, the ufsdump will overwrite the Server A ufsdump dump. I have tried to mt -f /dev/rmt/0 eom after ufsdump from server A either from Server A or rsh from Server B but it does not help. Any tip to make it work will be greatly appreciated. --------------------------------- Yahoo! Photos Ring in the New Year with Photo Calendars.
