Re: What reasons to use IGNITE?
just one or two examples:
using it you create make_recovery tapes, that will allow you to recover a system quickly after losing and replacing the root disc(s).
You can have a server set up for all other systems to be Ignited (installed) from
You can create "Golden Image" tapes/cd's to have a standard system build across your enterprise
It can be used to help resize /, /stand etc.
Read the documentation is my best suggestion.

Re: What reasons to use IGNITE?
using ignite i will make you system recovery very very easy .
you can make a iginte server and do regular backup of the system every week or even every day for recovery of the system if you will a problem with the system or with the kernel or you just what to play with the system .
i think that every system admin must use the ignite if he is working with HP-UX .
the ignite i think it one of the big adv. of using HP-UX because sun solar. dont have this kind of software .
you can also find more info on : www.hp.com

Re: What reasons to use IGNITE?
Ignite is a very good safety net for your servers and a dead server can be "Re-ignited" and up and running far quicker that doing a fresh install and configure.
It is free and can be got from here:-
http://www.software.hp.com/products/IUX/download.html
It installs without a reboot but as always do a backup first.
Once installed see man ignite :-
This command format will do all of vg00.
/opt/ignite/bin/make_tape_recovery -x inc_entire=vg00 -I -v -a /dev/rmt/0mn
I do a make_tape_recovery once a week and at any other time that changes are made to system params.

Re: What reasons to use IGNITE?
We use ignite to backup and clone servers.
Wonderful product and a great time saver.
Forum police time also.
