Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> spearce file on AIX 4.1.4 and Oracle7
I'm using Oracle7 (7.2.2.4) on a R30 (AIX v4.1.4). As backup we use 8mm
tape drive
and some script that uses mksysb and savevg.. My problem is that savevg
uses
backup/restore commands. When after restore from some Oracle tablespaces
the
files are smaller on disk then before.
'ls' gives the correct size but 'du' gives a smaler size. Now i'm told AIX
saves only
the data in the file and removes the empty spaces.
My problem is after some restores you don't know how mutch spaces there is
left
on that drive (it is possible to put a new file next to the empty restored
file).
Is there a way to turn this off or to get the correct size with some
command
other then 'df' 'du'...
(I don't whant to switch back to tar command)
