-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 sym-
bolic 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 sum-
mary mode information (as returned by stat()) is backed up. Use this option when back-
ing 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 gen-
erated.
-V path The volume header information is written to path at the end of a successful
fbackup ses-
sion. 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 11i Version 3 and beyond). Previous values of this field were
FBACKUP_LABEL (between HP-UX 10.20 and 11i Version 2
inclusive) and FBACKUP LABEL (before HP-UX 10.20).
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.
Checkpoint Frequency
This field contains the number of data records between checkpoints.
