Hi !!

How can I restore a one filesystem , if I have de boot tape made with the command make_recovery of IGNITE-UX ?. Obviously this filesystem was in the vg00.

Thank??s !!

Hi Ivan,
just insert the ignite tape into your tapedrive. start up your machine and at the
boot menue do a "search" to find out howto to
boot from the tape device (SCSI ID).
But pay attention on your networking cards. If you have more than one it might be possible that the ip addresses have changed!

Hi Ivan,

This looks like an UX question and not linux...

1. interrupt the boot process.
2. put in the make_recovery tape. if you have one.
3. sea ipl (this will list bootable devices.
4. select the number of the tape device . (sequensial)

go throug the menu (advanced) if you like to make changes to the os (logical volume sizes (other disk might be bigger), passwd, timezone, ip config etc.)

wait and your system will rebuild itselve.
