Ignite/UX is not available for Linux as far as I am aware. It is HP-UX specific

Hi there.
Ignite is HP-UX specific.
Not available for Linux.
Why not create a bootable CD image of your system ?

As many others have asked, you also ask. If you have a relationship with HP I suggest you ask them to port it to Linux. They did Serviceguard you know.

I think the difference is that SG produces money.

Hi

Like others who mentioned here Ignite UX is a HP product for HPUX, there is a kickstart product which comes with Linux ( I have used it in RedHat) which is used to loading OS on different servers.

As stated, there is no Ignite for Linux.

There has been lots of good feedback from a product called "mondo"

We used to use mondo rescue. Its free. Creates a bootable image to CD or tape. However after you reload there are problems with the boot loader that need to be fixed.

We now use Acronis True Image Software, not free but cheap.

Makes a complete image of Linux or Windoze,boots from CD a rebuilds the partition perfectly within 1 hour. Check it out, it works great.

OK, thanks you guys for your input. I will take a look at the product mondo and see if this will be a solution for us.
