Hi,

I have installed Ignite for hpux 10.20 A.3.7.95

one of the s/w ended up with the error below. i know the workaround is to include -m option, but this version of ignite does not have -m option.
kindly assist

Hi

i will swremove this version of ignite and download a new version that has the -m option .

you can download the new ignite from this link : http://www.software.hp.com/products/IUX/download.html

in all docs , the -m is the only option that i have found ( this is also for tar and cpio and pax )

I was recommended to use this Ignite version for hpux 10.20 previously. ???

any workaround ?
can this work?
Modify the defaults file, which is either:

/var/opt/ignite/clients/0x{LLA}/recovery/defaults or
/var/opt/ignite/recovery/defaults

with the following:
ARCHIVE_TYPE=cpio

But i dun have this file

Hi

i dont know on any workaround , i didnt install this option but first you need to check the pax patch version that is install on your system .

if you have the patch PHCO_20388 install download the new version of the ignite .

recommended to use this version ? it dep. what is the reason but from what i have look , i didnt found any workaround , it is impotented to know that this is not a problem with ignite but a porblem that cpio , tar and pax has .

Ignite A.3.7.95 was the last release made available for 10.20.

pax does not like the long path/filenames.

The workaround to these errors is to use make_recovery with the -p (preview mode). It will create a list of files that will be backed up. Edit this file to remove these entries. (The entries listed above are icons which are not critical to the backup anyway.) Once the file is edited, restart the backup with the -r (resume) switch.

See the man page or the Ignite user's guide for further details.
