Thanks Graham. Do you know where I may be able to find a correct =
procedure to do the full backup you mentioned?

The mirroDB backup is a dd backup of the raw mdb partition. This =
probably
not! What you need.
 You should do a full back-up of the drive to get everything

Subject: [foxboro] AW51E Mirror Backup on V6.5.1

Hi again List. I'm attemting a tape backup using an AIT2 tape and AIT2 =
tape
drive. The station is an AW51E on V6.5.1 with external mirrored hard =
drives.
First I checked the status of the mirrored drives and everything is OK.
Next, ran the "mirror_backup" and it appears to run with no problems. =
When
the backup is complete it tells me the operation was successful and to =
store
the tape away. The drives then re-mirror okay. But before I remove the =
tape
I enter a "ufsrestore tvfs /dev/rst9 1" to read the tape back and verify
that it's ok. I get the following message:

verify volume & initialize maps
media block size is 126
volume is not in dump format

This AW is on our simulator and is the only AW we have on V6.5.1. It's =
the
only station I'm having difficulties backing up. Has anyone experienced =
a
problem like this or maybe have any thoughts on something different I =
can
try?

Thanks,
Travis
