Crash Recovery
Hello,
Could someone please point me to documentation for restore/recovery in the event of hardware crash. Not emergency yet, but there is no recovery plan in house at this time. Pretty scary.
Thank You. Tim.

Re: Crash Recovery
Tim, you probably have to develop a detailed Disaster recovery proceedure for your environment based on what you have. However, to assist you, you might want to look a using Ignite-UX (which is free from HP) to create images of your servers http://www.software.hp.com/products/IUX/index.html
The scariest thing that can happen is when one of your hard drives dies - in that case, you would have to recover from backups. If other harware fails (I find these are rare) you would just replace the part and keep going :)
I would suggest the following:
1. Have a hardware support contract with HP (that way when something goes wrong, they can come in and replace the part)
2. Take an inventory of all your equipment;
3. Use ignite to create bootable disaster recovery tapes
4. Use nightly backups to back up your data
5. In the event of a hardware failure, you get HP (or your hardware support) to replace the part, restore your ignite image; and restore your data from normal backups ... ahem - a typical recovery takes just 4 hours !!! And you do not have to remember what the sizes of your logical volumes were...
Good luck

nothing wrong with me that a few lines of code cannot fix!

Re: Crash Recovery
Tim:
A very good thread asking essentially the same question has some very good guidelines. See:
http://my1.itrc.hp.com/cm/QuestionAnswer/1,1150,0xf299c3d7fb78d4118fef0090279cd0f9,00.html
Good Luck!
