ERROR: "/var/opt/ignite/recovery/config.recover", line 10: syntax error
ERROR Could not parse file: "/var/opt/ignite/recovery/config.recover".
instl_adm: Config file: "/var/opt/ignite/recovery/config.recover" cannot be parsed.
Thanks in advance.

Hi:

Make sure that your tape device specifies a no-rewind one, like "/dev/rmt/0mn" -- note the 'n'.

Did you examine the file? Sounds like it might be corrupt. Mine looks (in part)like this

/var/opt/ignite/recovery # head -20 config.recover
cfg "HP-UX System Recovery"=TRUE
_hp_saved_detail_level="vfph"
#
# Variable assignments
#
init _hp_root_disk="0/0/2/0.6.0"
init _hp_root_grp_disks=2
init _hp_root_grp_striped="NO"
init _hp_pri_swap=917504KB
_hp_locale visible_if false
_hp_cfg_detail_level visible_if false
_hp_pri_swap visible_if false
_hp_min_swap visible_if false
_hp_disk_layout visible_if false
_hp_default_cur_lan_dev visible_if false
_hp_default_final_lan_dev visible_if false
_hp_keyboard visible_if false
_hp_root_disk visible_if false
_hp_boot_dev_path visible_if false
_hp_saved_detail_level visible_if false
/var/opt/ignite/recovery #

if ignite can't parse the file, might it be corrupt, or unavailable, or have the wrong permissions?

Hi,

It seems your Ignite/UX is corrupted, can you swremove it and try to swinstall it again. No system reboot is required for the same.. I think that can solve your problem..

Cheers !!!
