To dump a fileset, do the following:
1. Verify that you have the necessary privilege. You must be included in the admin.ft file on the machine on which the fileset is stored. If necessary, issue bos lsadmin to verify the members of the administrative list.
2. Verify that you have the w (write), x (execute), and i (insert) ACL permissions for the directory in which you wish to store the dump file. If necessary, issue the dcecp acl show command to list the permissions for the directory.
3. Enter the fts dump command to dump the fileset:
$ fts dump -fileset {name | ID} {-time {date | 0} | -version number} [-server machine] [-file filename]
The -time date or 0 option specifies a full or incremental dump. Use the -time option or use the -version option. There are three valid entries for the -time option:
· The 0 entry causes a full dump of the current version.
· The mm/dd/yy entry causes an incremental dump from 12:00 a.m. on the indicated date.
· The mm/dd/yy hh:mm entry causes an incremental dump from the specified time on the indicated date. The time must be in 24-hour format (for example, 20:30 for 8:30 p.m.). Surround the entire argument with " " (double quotes) because it contains a space (for example, "11/22/91 20:30").
The -version number option specifies an incremental dump of the indicated version of the fileset. A fileset's version number is incremented with every change to the fileset or a file that it contains. Use the -version option or use the -time option. The -version option can be used only with DCE LFS filesets.
The -server machine option names the File Server machine that houses the version of the fileset to be dumped. This option is useful for dumping a particular read-only replica of a DCE LFS fileset for which multiple replicas exist.
The -file filename option specifies the complete path name of the file in which the dump is to be stored. The current working directory is used if a complete path name is not provided. If this option is omitted, the data is sent to standard output (stdout).
