Unfortunately, it is not possible to include that XML file into a regular archive (because, for instance, that XML file contains names of archives) 2.) This file can be appended to the tape only if it is not rewindable (/dev/nst0 vs. /dev/st0) To be honest, I'm not sure about the correct solution of this issue right now. It would be possible to create and save the autoprofile (append) to a non-rewindable tape and to, let say, ~/.yast-backup/ directory if the tape is rewindable. Or just save it there always when backup destination is under the /dev/ directory... Also maybe the autoprofile (but without names of archives) could be created before the real backup starts and included in the first backup but this would cost a lot of development effort. What do you think of that? Do you have any better idea? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
