Disk Backups

[Renato Ghica]

Can any kind soul tell me the best way to make a physical copy of a 
disk (including all the filesystems on it ?) to another disk ?

tar seems to have problems copying files in /dev, and if there are disks
mounted with mountpoints on /, then the contents of those disks get
copied as well. 

dd only lets me do one partition at the time

I don't have volcopy on my SPARCstation ver 4.1.1

Being from the VMS world, I was hoping to find something similar to the
"BACKUP/IMAGE command", or a shadowing/mirroring implementation thereof.

Thanks...



HELP !
