Re: linux backup using partition names worked

Post by tas3086 »

Eric, thank you very much. That was the problem(and a few other parameter things) . Tested it and it worked fine.
I was surprised that linux would be able to detect the dos and EMBR partition names that I had assigned to my drives. Backups were successfully made using partition names !

Now, all I need is a foolproof way to detect whether I am running under DOS or LINUX. I could use GETTRIVE() and see if there is a ":" in the result, but if I were running from a TBOS mounted drive like 0:, I might make the wrong assumption.

Thanks again

You should be able to use the global "tbsenv" variable. Its value is determined by the type of the environment the script is running on (DOS, LINUX, WINDOWS).
