I have been running a dump script for a while which should do a full dump of one of our servers . The problem is that when i run the restore which seems to work and the machine becomes unresponsive, so i power cycled the machine, the machine came up and only some of the files have been updated. For example when i run a crontab -l on the machine it has not updated and there are lots of files in etc that have not updated. In the scripts i am running: cd / dump 0uf dump.11-10-06 / When extracting i am running cd / restore -rf dump.11-10-06 Could someone tell me why some of the files might not be extracting? Is there some switch i do not know about which forces the current files to overwritten? How can i check that the dump done is clean and not corrupt in anyway. Any help would be much appreciated.
