Re: Ignite server

Hi,

If your talking about the files under the /opt/ignite/boot/ directories, one easy method would be to run swinstall again for your ignite software with the "-x reinstall=true" flag set. If you have customized or changed configuration on you ignite software, make sure you back it up first. Come to think of it, back it up anyway. You can recover the backup over the reinstall just to make sure any configuration changes have been retained.

Good luck!

Re-installing IUX should put them back.

Re: Ignite server

If re-isntall makes you nervous, you could copy the clobbered files from another ignite server running the same version.

If you you don't have that, you could install the same version of Ignite on a second machine, then copy the clobbered files over.

I bit more surgical if you want to be very careful. If not, re-install.

Shalom shajes,

How about you back up the config files you have left, then install Ignite over again.

You need to swremove the old version if you are upgrading.

If you don't upgrade you can copy in the old files and re-edit INSTALL.

A good system backup would have prevented all of this. fbackup is fine for this job.
