Re: how to create golden image with all partition
I assumed that when you say partitions you actually mean logic volumes
Ignite will backup all the LVs of vg00 and if you want it to backup any additional VGs, there is an option inc_entire=/dev/vg01, that will include /dev/vg01 as part of the ignite backup
are both /dbadata and /datapadb on different VGs ?

Solutionmake_sys_image will include the contents of all mountpoints / partitions ( including /dbadata and datapadb in your case). If you want to exclude that, you need to unmount them while taking the system image. I have done this at my place and the archive size i got was 15gb.
Probably the size of your image will give a clear idea. Normally for a hpux 11.11 system, the gziped archive size will be approx. 2.5-3 gb. (again this is just an estimate)
But as i said previously, i have done this and the archive contains all mounted partitions.
Thanks

Re: how to create golden image with all partition
Have you setup the nfs correctly? For the file systems, "man make_sys_image" says:
"make_sys_image does not capture file system or disk layout information. Use save_config to capture this information"
So you can save this information in this way:
"save_config -f /tmp/image.config vg00 vg04"
(put the vgs you want)
You have to add this file into your Golden Image configuration file.
Regards,

Re: how to create golden image with all partition
<this one is for people who might face the same issue like me>
make sure your target directory where the image is getting stored has sufficient diskspace, while the image creation is in progress you can run #bdf <dir path> and ll in target server/directory to check the space usage and if the archive size is getting bigger than the available disk space.
