gstat(8) Also, perhaps syslog to a different machine or nfs mount /var/log if you feel you're missing a log message due to this error. > - is there any way that I can slow down the disk i/o? Turn down operating mode via atacontrol. If using dump(8) use the cache feature and/or do the backup from live disk, so no other services are running and disk isn't accessed other then by dump. -- Mel _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
