Activity logging
The file backup.log is used to record backup activities. It is
saved in the /export/home/xrxusr directory. The first line of the
backup log contains the system name and the time and date the
backup was initiated.
To prevent the log being overwritten by a subsequent backup,
rename the log. You should give it a name that is somehow
related the date that the backup was made (for example,
backup040402.log).
To rename the log, perform the following steps:
1. Open a terminal window and logon as root user
2. Enter pwd to verify that /export/home/xrxusr is the current
directory.
If it is not, enter cd /export/home/xrxusr to change to it.
3. Enter ls to display the contents of the directory. One of the
files listed should be backup.log.
4. Change the log name to your desired name by entering the
following command:
mv backup.log logname
where logname is the name you have selected for your
backup log.
The file restore.log is used to record recovery activities. It is in
the root directory of the DSPERU diskette. Please note that this
diskette, and therefore the log is only readable on a UNIX
system. The first line of the log, contains the time and date the
recovery was initiated. To prevent the log from being overwritten
the next time a recovery is performed, rename the log. You
should give it a name that is somehow related the date that the
recovery was made (for example, restore040402.log).
