Title: 4.1 Beta 3 - Tape backup support (backup no per ibay)
Post by: Lasse Johansson on January 15, 2001, 10:52:18 PM

Is this feature planned for the 4.1 release?

(I can't find the settings anywhere in the 4.1b3)

Best Regards

Lasse

No. The tape backup for 4.1 is a full system backup.

You can always use taper to perform selective backup/restores.  Note however that 4.1B3 has the wrong version installed.  Download the correct version from ftp://ftp.e-smith.com/pub/e-smith/dev/e-smith-4.1beta3/updates/taper-6.9b-3.i386.rpm and perform the following command:  rpm -e taper-6.9b-3 to remove the incorrect version and rpm -Uvh taper-6.9b-3.i386.rpm to install the correct version.
Taper documentation is available at http://www.e-survey.net.au/taper/
