from the xfsdump man page: xfsrestore also generates a directory named orphanage in the dest directory. xfsrestore removes this directory after completing a simple restore. However, if orphanage is not empty, it is not removed. This can happen if files present on the dump media are not referenced by any of the restored directories. The orphanage has an entry for each such file. The entry name is the file's original inode number, a ".", and the file's generation count modulo 4096 (only the lower 12 bits of the generation count are used). and the -t option from xfsdump man page: Displays the contents of the dump, but does not create or modify any files or directories. It may be desirable to set the verbosity level to silent when using this option. But when we use -t option with xfsrestore, it still create orphanage directory in current directory (because no dest directory assign). and if it's not empty, it is not removed. This is a bug or it's a feature? -- Tommy Wu _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@xxxxxxxxxxx http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
