Hi All,
When I want to perform a full system backup to tape, Do I need to backup
/sys/* as well ???
I notice that my DLT is quite slow when performing the backup of the /sys/*
files.
I get these kind of messages :
cpio: File ./sys/class/scsi_host/host0/host_busy shrunk by 4094 bytes,
padding with zeros
./sys/class/scsi_host/host0/host_busy
cpio: File ./sys/class/scsi_host/host0/unique_id shrunk by 4094 bytes,
padding with zeros
I suspect that these files are all created when booting the system which
means that they do not need to be backed-up
Am I suspecting right or wrong ?
Cheers
Edwin
