[FW-1] MDS backup script

[Torkel Mathisen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>]

Hi,

I used the following script (found it in the archives) for backup of MDS in R65:

#!/bin/csh
# Loading environment
source /opt/CPshrd-R65/tmp/.CPprofile.csh

# Setup script variables
set BACKUPDIR=/export/home/cpbackup/mgt
set DMY=`date +%d%h%Y`

# Performing mdsstop, mds_backup and mdsstart
mdsenv
mkdir $BACKUPDIR/$DMY
cd $BACKUPDIR/$DMY
mdsstop
mds_backup < /usr/local/bin/cr.txt
mdsstart

# Tar and gzip backup file and remove tmp directory
cd $BACKUPDIR
tar -cf $DMY.tar $DMY
rm -rf $BACKUPDIR/$DMY


When I upgraded to R70 I only changed R65 to R70 in the script and was expecting it to work, but for some reason it doesn't work in R70.

It runs all the way down to mds_backup < /usr/local/bin/cr.txt, but for some reason it won't start backup.

Anyone else seen that?

I tried a manual backup and the script doesn't ask for anything more than it did on R65.

And yes; I have fixed the mds_exclude.dat file in R70.

Regards,
Torkel
