Scenario: use make_recovery -A to create an Ignite tape of our T520 system. Send tape off-site to DR vendor to boot tape on another T520 system. The DR vendor is having problems getting the tape to load properly. We have used the same tape here on the T520 it was build on and it loads the OS just fine. The DR vendor then used the same Ignite tape and loaded the OS just fine on a K-series server. Again this is just a generic question to see if anyone else has had problems with T-series servers and Ignite in a disaster test ? Thanks

Re: Disaster Recovery using Ignite
I was just at the sunguard DR site in Philly, about 2 weeks ago, we had to recover to a couple or T boxes while I was there and found out that the scsi cables that are run from the T box is actually a single ended cable going to a junction box of some sort and then run to the T box its self. The problem with this is that when you exceed a six foot length from controler to termination on a single ended type of connection you will start to get erroneous errors, this will still work sometimes but is not reliable. I mention this because while we were there most all the tapes we had were acting as if they were bad, when we had tested most of them at our site as good. That is when I discovered how they were using the single ended scsi devices. After I discovered this I had them take the correct type of tape drive (at least DDS2 tape drives, they gave us some DDS1 drives as well, useless) and connect it directly to the server in there control area so that the distance was only a couple of feet as apposed to the 50+ feet they had initially given us, and had them clean the tape drive again. All of the sudden our tapes were good again.
Check this out, make sure the tape drives are local to the sever, they are the correct type of drive, they have been cleaned, and they are terminated properly at the DR site and your tapes should work fine, if they work at your site.
Good Luck!!
