#295 Bruno Cornec G. John Dome worksforme Unable to restore
Description

RHEL5 Installed mondo and created backup via NFS using mondoarchive.

Then PXE boot and have errors right after pinging NFS server, however NFS share is mounted. I can then manually mount the ISO image and perform the tar on all.tar.gz. But why does it fail to do this?

#296 Bruno Cornec kaplan71 fixed Problem Running Mondoarchive 2.2.7 on a Fedora 2 system
Description

I am trying to run version 2.2.7-r2045 on a Fedora Core 2 system, and the backup process either takes a very long time to complete or hangs during execution. The backup in question is an NFS backup, and the syntax that is used is shown below:

/usr/sbin/mondoarchive -9 -N -O -s 4812m -p mondorescue -n rorecovery.mgh.harvard.edu:/rtp51

Initially the problem appeared to be with the version of tar, 1.13, that came bundled with the operating system. That was corrected by upgrading tar to the newer 1.15 version. Once that was done, mondoarchive would commence with the backup.

The first problem that I encountered was that mondo would take upwards to eight hours to complete, and create twenty 4.7 gigabyte iso images for a thirty gigabyte local hard drive. This would occur even though the –N option was used at the command line.

To get around the first problem, all NFS mounts were unmounted with the exception of the destination where the iso images would be created. During the fileset creation process, mondoarchive would get to ninety-eight percent completion, and then hang for no apparent reason.

I have enclosed the mindi and mondoarchive logs with this e-mail. I checked for any failed references, and the following entries appeared in the mondoarchive.log file:

mindi --makemountlist mondo.tmp.G0Uket/mountlist.txt.test failed for some reason. Failed. [Main] libmondo-tools.c->pre_param_configuration#810: Your distribution did not pass Mondo's sanity test.

[Main] newt-specific.c->fatal_error#296: Fatal error received - 'Pre-param initialization phase failed. Please review the error messages above, make the specified changes, then try again. Exiting...'

Can someone lend a hand on this? Thanks.

#297 Bruno Cornec Bruno Cornec fixed syslinux doesn't seem to work through NFS
Description

When using mondoarchive through NFS for -T and -S, mindi is called with temp files created through NFS as well.

syslinux called in mindi then hang (Status D) as here:

root     30894  0.0  0.0  2612  604 pts/4    D+   19:11   0:00 mattrib -h -r -s s:ldlinux.sys

A workaround in mindi consist in launching syslinux on a local disk before copying it on NFS.

mindi 2.0.4 line 1692:

Change

        syslinux $imagefile >> $LOGFILE 2>> $LOGFILE

into

        mv $imagefile /tmp/$imagefile
        syslinux /tmp/$imagefile >> $LOGFILE 2>> $LOGFILE
        mv /tmp/$imagefile $imagefile
