doing a tar to a remote tape remotely via ssh
2007-12-24 22:01:00
This is simple I'm sure, but I've forgotten the syntax to send do a tar & send
it to a remote tape drive via ssh...athought this won't work, I think it's
SOMETHING like this:
On the machine that holds the filesystem I want to back up, I type:
tar cpfv - /source_dir | ssh remote_host_with_tape_drive "/bin/tar xpf -
/dev/rmt/3hbn"
What am I missing?
TIA,
