Moving filesystems with ufsdump

Submitted by on November 19, 2005 – 11:22 pm 3 Comments

to move /opt on new partition (disk or file system)

1) from system prompt: format –> partition –> label
2) newfs -v /dev/dsk/c0t1d0s1 (target location)
3) mkdir /new_dir
4) mount /dev/dsk/c0t1d0s1 /new_dir
5) cd /new_dir
6) ufsdump 0f – /opt | ufsrestore xvf –

Set directory mode, owner, and times.
set owner/mode for ‘.’? [yn] n
Directories already exist, set modes anyway? [yn] n

7) update /etc/vfstab (target partitions for /opt)

8) create/update boot record:
installboot /usr/platform/`uname -i`/lib/fs/ufs/bootblk /dev/rdsk/c0t1d0s0

9) reboot:
sync:sync;halt
>ok boot /sbus@3,0/SUNW,fas@3,8800000/sd@d,0

    I worked at one target location from jan-april and then another target location (in the same state) from nov-dec. Would i get one w2 or two? I already received one and I figured if it was a low amount it would be from the one i worked from nov-dec but since it isnt, im not 100% sure if its from both or just the one that i worked at longer..and the address is from target corp headquarters so im confused

    Lets say a platoon is under attack and they need some artillery rounds to kill the bad guys. How would the observer determine the exact location of the bad guys?

    I was trying to back up my outlook files to external hard drive.i have exported the file and saved it as a backup file and from that folder I am unable to copy to the external hard drive as a pst file.Basically it is not asking for a target location ,it is giving the options of folders that I have saved other information in the same computer(not the hard drive option) .Could you please help me with this .I am using outlook 2003.
