I need your help in cloning 28TB xfs filesystem I used the following script:
/backuptacs.sh >> /backuptacs.log
And the script is:
#!/bin/ksh
echo "++++++++++++++++ Start Date is `date`+++++++++++++ "
cd /tacs1/conq/hhl_imgs
find . -depth -print | cpio -pdmv /tacs2/conq/hhl_imgs
echo "++++++++++++++++ Completion Date is `date`+++++++++"
echo "========================================================"
With 31 GB of free memory when I run the above script I noticed too mush usage of memory. In two hours time free memory dropped to 23 GB. I can see from top that 8 GB is used and keep increasing.
