You back up a file system, and the root (/) file system fills up. Nothing is written to the media, and the ufsdump command prompts you to insert the second volume of media.

How to Fix the Problem |
---|---|
If you used an invalid destination device name with the -f option, the ufsdump command wrote to a file in the /dev directory of the root (/) file system, filling it up. For example, if you typed /dev/rmt/st0 instead of /dev/rmt/0, the backup file /dev/rmt/st0 was created on the disk rather than being sent to the tape drive. |
Use the ls -tl command in the /dev directory to identify which file is newly created and abnormally large, and remove it. |
