- Is it possible (it has to be...) to backup file systems to multiple
- optical disks? It is not clear from the manual if fbackup can handle
- a change of volume cleanly even though the backup can't fit on one
- disk. Right now, fbackup stops whenever the first optical disk
- is full.
-
- Anyone can point me to a section of the manual explaining this or,
- better, tell me what options I should use? Our system is an HP9000 300
- running HP-UX 8.0.
-
- Thanks a lot,
-

- The man pages for fbackup(1M) explain that fbackup will accept multiple
- -f options. If more than one output file is specified, fbackup uses
- each one successively and then repeats in a cyclical pattern.
