tape write: "permission denied"?
2007-12-24 20:16:00
obviously the sun's too hot here today (for me at least :)
I've tried to write to a tape and got the error: permission denied
What was wrong?
Directly before that i've written an "ufsdump" to another tape;
that worked fine. This new try comes over the net via "ssh"
(ufsdump ... | ssh host "dd of=/dev/rmt/..." ) and failed.
First idea: "ssh" No, "ssh host date" was working...
Second idea: locally i was "root" maybe over the net i'm not?
...
Finally i learned that i forgot to move the "write-lock"
to "write-enabled" ... :((
But then, don't i remember correctly that "write locked" or something
like that came out by "mt -f ... status" or as an error message?
(Instead of "permission denied"?)
So which patch did i miss or installed too much when i last week
installed solaris-7 plus MU4 plus "7_Recommended" patches (from scratch)
onto that machine?
With regards,
