Hi Gurus,

While running ignite backup i am getting below error

* Creating local directories for configuration files and archive.

It almost looks like your 'lssf' command may be corrupted.

See if your output matches this:

(NOTE -- This is from an HP-UX 11.0 system as well)

# whence lssf
/usr/sbin/lssf

# ll /usr/sbin/lssf
lrwxr-xr-x   1 root       root            10 Mar  5  2010 /usr/sbin/lssf -> /sbin/mksf

# ll /sbin/mksf
-r-xr-xr-x   4 bin        bin         311296 Jul 10  2002 /sbin/mksf

# what /sbin/mksf
/sbin/mksf:
         $Revision: 82.15.1.29 PHCO_27370 $
         $ PATCH/11.00:PHCO_19491  Aug  9 1999 09:51:13 $

# file /sbin/mksf
/sbin/mksf:     PA-RISC1.1 shared executable

Here is information returned from one of the boot disks on an 11.0 server:

# lssf /dev/rdsk/c1t6d0
sdisk card instance 1 SCSI target 6 SCSI LUN 0 section 0 at address 0/0/2/0.6.0 /dev/rdsk/c1t6d0

Another thought I had is that someone may have set up an alias for lssf.

Try these:

# alias

Lists all aliases

# alias lssf

Will list an alias for lssf if one exists.

>someone may have set up an alias for lssf.

Your above whence would show that too.
