[SunHELP] Using Ufsdump command as Oracle account - HELP

[Heshmati, Sardar]

Here is some info from SunSolve...

DUMP: Cannot open dump device `/dev/rdsk/c2t0d0s1': Permission denied
=====================================================================
  When using ufsdump(1M) as user sys (UID 3) on a disk drive in a SSA, the
ufsdump(1M)
  command fails with the message.

  The permissions on the ssd 'instance path' for disk in an SSA are created
with 600
  permissions. They should be 0640 for a non-root user to be able to read
them. For
  example, 

     # ls -lL /dev/rdsk/c2t0d0s1
     crw-------   1 root     sys      192,241 Jul 10  1996
/dev/rdsk/c2t0d0s1

  Change it so it reads: 

     crw-r-----   1 root     sys      192,241 Jul 10  1996
/dev/rdsk/c2t0d0s1

  You might also want to add the following line 

      ssd:* 0640 root sys   

  to the /etc/minor_perm file, so subsequently added arrays do not have the
same
  problem.

Hi guys

I've been trying to use the Ufsdump command as Oracle but I keep getting the
following error:

	$ /usr/sbin/ufsdump 0uf /dev/rmt/0n /export/home/oracle/dba/log
	DUMP: Cannot open dump device `/dev/rdsk/c0t0d0s0': Permission
denied

However, I am able to run the ufsrestore command as the same user.

For your information, this particular user belongs to the sysadm group as
well.

I have tried everything I know (considering that my Unix experience is
limited), to no avail, and I would appreciate any suggestions from you gurus
out there.

Regards.

Tope
