Hi all. I'm trying to pipe uvbackup (universe) and gzip in order to compress backups "on the fly". I've done it with success. But the problem arise when I try to uvrestore from it.
A simple test that you can try: RHEL:/u2/uv# find HS.SALES | bin/uvbackup -v -f - |dd of=hs_sales.bk Backup Date : Wed Apr 13 21:22:29 2011 Reel Number : 1 Image Type : Full Backup (ver9 UNIX) Block Size : 8192 bytes NLS on : False Label : Current device(s): stdout Backing up HS.SALES Backing up HS.SALES/VOC.u Backing up HS.SALES/D_VOC Backing up HS.SALES/VOCLIB Backing up HS.SALES/D_VOCLIB Backing up HS.SALES/CUSTOMER Backing up HS.SALES/CUSTOMER.u Backing up HS.SALES/D_CUSTOMER Backing up HS.SALES/D_CUSTOMER.u Backing up HS.SALES/PRODUCTS Backing up HS.SALES/PRODUCTS.u Backing up HS.SALES/D_PRODUCTS Backing up HS.SALES/D_PRODUCTS.u Backing up HS.SALES/STATES Backing up HS.SALES/STATES.u Backing up HS.SALES/D_STATES Backing up HS.SALES/D_STATES.u Backing up HS.SALES/HS_FILE_A000 Backing up HS.SALES/D_HS_FILE_A000 Backing up HS.SALES/.hs_fileinfo Backing up HS.SALES/VOC Backing up HS.SALES/.uvconfig Backing up HS.SALES/uvconfig Backing up HS.SALES/puntouvconfig Total files: 24 Total bytes : 97273 Elapsed Time: 00:00:01 12 operating system files processed, 0 broken, totalling 41444 data bytes. 12 UniVerse files processed, 0 corrupted. 939 UniVerse records processed, 0 corrupted, totalling 55829 data bytes. -1073742616 extended keys processed, 0 not supported at specified revision level.
