To whom it may concern,
I'm archiving files from our data acquisition
on a dlt tape using tar. Everything works fine so far,
I'm collecting data writing them collecting more appending them
at the end of the existing archieve etc...
BUT I only get the number of bytes written the first time,
when I create the first archieve on the tape.
Whwn I'm appending more data to the archieve,
I don't get the output of --totals any more.
How can I access this information??
I'm using Linux, SUSE 6.3.
if [ $FIRST_RUN -eq 0 ]
then
tar -c --totals -f $DLT_DRIVE -V$TAPE_LABEL $RUNNUMBER 2>&1 | awk
'{print $4 >"'$WRITBYT_FILE'"}'
else
tar -r --totals -f $DLT_DRIVE -V$TAPE_LABEL $RUNNUMBER 2>&1 | awk
'{print $4 >"'$WRITBYT_FILE'"}'
fi
The first line with option -c works fine and produces
the output as documented. The second line does not
produce anything, even if not filtered by awk.
$DLT_DRIVE is /dev/st1
What am I missing???
many thanks for any hint
best regards
Frank Maas
