Check your devices in the dev file, do you have a /dev/nsa0, the third
line of your DUMP output doesn't match with your shell script. Check your
script, is the correct device specified?
If your missing some devices in your /dev, make them with the MAKEDEV
command. MAKEDEV sa# or MAKEDEV local, see man MAKEDEV. Double check
your script and try again.

Subject: Exabyte 8200 not working right?
I'm running FreeBSD 4.2-RELEASE. This is the shell file
I've used
to dump my disks since FreeBSD 2.x:
# dump 64k blocksize 2441406 1k blocks per 2.5Gb Exabyte 8200 tape
/sbin/dump 0ubBf 64 2441406 /dev/nrsa0 /
/sbin/dump 0ubBf 64 2441406 /dev/nrsa0 /var
/sbin/dump 0ubBf 64 2441406 /dev/rsa0 /usr
Suddenly, under 4.2-RELEASE, it doesn't work. The second
dump gets
an error as soon as it tries to write to the tape, which should start a
new
tape file after the first dump:
DUMP: Date of this level 0 dump: Mon May 7 20:33:18 2001
DUMP: Date of last level 0 dump: the epoch
DUMP: Dumping /dev/da0s2e (/var) to /dev/nsa0
DUMP: mapping (Pass I) [regular files]
DUMP: mapping (Pass II) [directories]
DUMP: estimated 8354 tape blocks on 0.00 tape(s).
DUMP: dumping (Pass III) [directories]
DUMP: write error 64 blocks into volume 1
DUMP: Do you want to restart?: ("yes" or "no") no
DUMP: The ENTIRE dump is aborted.
Can anybody tell me what the heck is going on here? My /
and /var
are so small that I'm going to waste 99% of two tapes, dumping one file
system per tape.
