hi
While trying to take ignite backup on a server i get following error;

Any idea how to rectify this.

Bonjour Amit,

-- "dev/vg00/temp_agsys has an unmounted VxFS filesystem on it" --

You should check /etc/fstab for unmounted filesystems. When you take an ignite backup, all filesystems in /etc/fstab must be mounted. Wheter you comment unmounted FS in /etc/fstab, wheter you mount them before taking an image.

I have no idea with the second error when parsing file system_cfg. How do you take the image ?

Hi,

Did we observe this error

ERROR: "/var/opt/ignite/recovery/2009-03-05,09:04/system_cfg", line 358:
Illegal character: "M" <<<===

As advised above, hash the entires in /etc/fstab for /dev/vg00/temp_agsys,

then execute

make_tape_recovery -v -x inc_entire=vg00 -a

This filesystem is not there in /etc/fstab.

You are right Amit, bad reading of your 1st post : first message is just a warning, not an error. So it is just what it says : you have an unused LV /dev/vg00/temp_agsys. So maybe you can free it up. But it is not the purpose there.

I still don't understand the ERROR message above. Check this thread and tell us : http://forums.itrc.hp.com/service/forums/questionanswer.do?threadId=1263778

Hi Amit

Check your Version of Ignite if it is Ignite-UX B.3.5.89 than its a known error in this version.

Please upgrade the version

Hi Amit,

Thanks for your reply.

Is it possible for you to post the output of recovery.log

I would also suggest you to upgrade your Ignite verion.

http://h20392.www2.hp.com/portal/swdepot/displayProductInfo.do?productNumber=IGNITEUXB

Anyways you dont need to reboot the server and it wont affect your server for installing the above depot.

Please install and let us know how it goes

All the best !!

Hmm.. From the previous thread I believe you are having 11.00. If right, then post your complete recovery.log
