I have a Linux-vserver guest I want to dump the whole disk of. I have no access to the host.
I tried:
dd if=/dev/hdv1 | gzip -c | ssh user@remote.host.net 'dd of=/path/to/file.img' bs=2048
but the result was:
dd: opening `/dev/hdv1': No such file or directory
Running df inside the linux-vserver guest gives this result:
root@vs8904:~# df
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/hdv1 1511856 1409764 25292 99% /
root@vs8904:~#
But:
root@vs8904:~# ls -al /dev/hd*
ls: cannot access /dev/hd*: No such file or directory
root@vs8904:~#
Is there any tool which will allow me this?
I can not have any access to the host machine hosting this linux-vserver.
