i'm trying to create tape recovery, but i get a "failed to open device permission denied"
during the prompt remsh is logging in as root
one error says "ipc failure configuration daemon not running"
can somebody please help. also how can i stop the recovery from running. says kill "make_sys_image" but i can't find any process like that on server and client.
i'm running a ignite server on HP735. i'm using the latest ignite B3.5.
would appreciate any help.
thanks

Re: failed to open tape device
If you have mentioned the device file in the command line you should be using the no-rewind device, device file with "mn" extension. Also the ignite backup defaults to /dev/rmt/0mn, so if you are using a device at a different address you should mention the device file name in the ignite backup command line.
Hope this helps.

Re: failed to open tape device
You mention using remsh. Are remsh'ing to another machine and executing make_tape_recovery? Or are you trying to get make_tape_recovery to see a tape drive on a different machine?
make_tape_recovery will NOT write a tape to a tape drive on a different machine.

Re: failed to open tape device
what i do is on my server, i create the clients and then run make_tape recovery from there. i have about 12 boxes to do this. i've used it on 2 and it ran fine. but with the last 2, i'm having problems with open tape permissions. i know on the server ,everything is okay then.

Re: failed to open tape device
If you are trying for a network based system recovery archive creation, then use make_net_recovery instead of make_tape_recovery.
See man make_net_recovery for more information.
For listing all recovery processes and killing purpose, use:
# ps -aef | grep recovery
# ps -aef | grep /dev/rmt/0m
