Ignite image on local disks.

[Gulam Mohiuddin]

We would like to create ignite image on local disk instead of local tape drive on remote server without having any Ignite-UX Server configured.

We have a remote server with local tape drive attached but we don???t want to physically go there to put the DDS tape into the tape drive. I would prefer to create the ignite image first on local disk and then create ignite tape on other server???s tape drive in our head office where I sit.

We want to get it done without any Ignite-UX Server involvement.

Thanks,

Gulam.

Gulam,

Ignite has two methods:

1) to tape

2) to network ignite server


What you're hoping to accomplish is outside the design principles of the product. Get a tape drive and attach it locally.

Hi Gulam,

Sorry, you have to use one of the two options you mentioned, server or tape.

In these cases we look for a "super"-user at the location who operates the tape-handling. Server costs us to much bandwith.

Goodluck,
Donald
