-i path path specifies a tree to be included in the backup graph. There is no limit on how many
times the -i option can be specified.
-n Cross NFS mount points. By default,
fbackup does not cross NFS mount points,
regardless of paths specified by the -i or -g options.
-l Includes LOFS files specified by the backup graph. By default,
fbackup does not cross
LOFS mount points. If
-l is specified, and the backup graph includes files which are
also in an LOFS directory that is in the backup graph, then those files will be backed up
twice.
-s Back up the object that a symbolic link refers to. The default behavior is to back up the
symbolic link.
-u Update the database of past backups so that it contains the backup level, the time of the
beginning and end of the session, and the graph file used for this
fbackup session. For
this update to take place, the following conditions must exist: Neither the
-i nor the -e
option can be used; the -g option must be specified exactly once (see below); the
fbackup must complete successfully.
-v Run in verbose mode. Generates status messages that are otherwise not seen.
-y Automatically answer yes to any inquiries.
-A Do not back up optional entries of access control lists (ACLs) for files. Normally, all mode
information is backed up including the optional ACL entries. With the
-A option, the
summary mode information (as returned by stat()) is backed up. Use this option when
backing up files from a system that contains ACLs to be recovered on a system that does
not understand ACLs (see acl(5)).
-E Do not back up extent attributes. Normally, all extent attributes that have been set are
included with the file. This option only applies to file systems which support extent attri-
butes.
-I path path specifies the name of the on-line index file to be generated. It consists of one line for
each file backed up during the session. Each line contains the file size, the volume
number on which that file resides, and the file name. If the -I option is omitted, no
index file is generated.
-V path The volume header information is written to path at the end of a successful
fbackup
session. The following fields from the header are written in the format label :value with
one pair per line.
Magic Field On a valid fbackup media it contains the value
FBACKUP_LABEL (HP-UX release 10.20 and beyond). Before
HP-UX release 10.20, it contained the value FBACKUP LABEL.
Machine Identification
This field contains the result of uname -m.
System Identification
This field contains the result of uname -s.
Release Identification
This field contains the result of uname -r.
Node Identification
This field contains the result of uname -n.
User Identification
This field contains the result of cuserid() (see cuserid (3S)).
Record Size This field contains the maximum length in bytes of a data
record.
Time This field contains the clock time when fbackup was started.
Media Use This field contains the number of times the media has been used
for backup. Since the information is actually on the media, this
field will always contain the value 0.
Volume Number This field contains a # character followed by 3 digits, and
identifies the number of volumes in the backup.
