I want to migrate a HP-UX server from rx4640 to BL860C. The rx server root disk is configured with LVM with 2 physical disks. I want to take the ignite back-up (make_sys_image) of that root disk and migrate the same to the new server using the ignite-ux. Can anyone suggest a rite approach to perform this task. I need to duplicate the rx servers disk to the blade server.
Thanks in Advance.

really ;)
I would recommend it, if it is supported. ;)
There is a system cloning whitepaper on docs.hp.com. I would propose to read through that document to see what to do.
For the rest, the bl860c is a somewhat new architecture, so I would at least update the rx8640 OS to the march? 2010 HP-UX 11.31 core OS dvd, and take a ignite backup/golden image after this update, and do a restore attempt on the bl860c to see if it can work.
Greetz,

Golden imaage has better chances of getting restored on a different HP Model compared to make_net archives.

Re: Ignite back of the HPUX root disk with LVM
It is quite easy as the basic steps :
take the ignite backup of the server .
go to the ignite server , /var/opt/ignite/clients create a directory of the MAC address of the new server , create a link with the hostname , copy CINDEX and recover files to that directory

You may want to consider creating a media archive, that is, a copy of the DVD. Use that source to Ignite your blade. You'll then need to add patches, applications and config files.
