Haws) Newsgroups: comp.unix.xenix.misc,comp.unix.xenix.sco Subject: Need assistance with afio problem. Keywords: afio Message-ID: <446@yonder.UUCP> Date: 26 May 91 15:51:21 GMT Organization: Redstone Enterprises, Lakewood, Co Lines: 19 I am trying to use afio to back up my 386 based SCO Xenix 2.3.2 system. The command I use is find /usr /u -print | afio -oZ -L/back/log | dd of=/dev/rct0 ibs=10b obs=1000b Part way thru the backup, messages appear in the log file something to the effect of "File table overflow" repeated many times. On the console the message "Inode table overflow" appears many times. When the job completes the "df" command shows 1000's of free inodes. I suspect it may have something to do with the compressing of the data but does any one know for sure. Thanks, Michael -- Michael E.
