Re: ignite format
make_tape_recovery -x inc_entire=vg00 inc_entire=bg01 inc_entire=vg02 -a /dev/rmt/0mn -I
That being said, I would advise AGAINST using Ignite to back up anything except VG00. If you need to restore your VG00, then you don't want to have to take the time to restore everything else as well. Also, if just your VG00 is gone, then you really should NOT need to restore everything else, and probably don't want to.
I advise using Ignite for VG00 only, and then using fbackup to backup your other VG's / filesystems.

SolutionNo, the syntax is wrong. You would specify:
... -x inc_entire=vg00 -x inc_entire=bg01 -x inc_entire=vg02 ...
That said, *however*, I would point out that Ignite is a tool for creating a recovery image of vg00 (or perhaps more properly, a recoverable operating system image). Including non-vg00 filesystems is unwise in my opinion.
You want to be able to recover or clone the operating system configuration. After that, you should restore non-vg00 (application) data from other backups and/or 'vgimport' volume groups. This provides the most rapid, cleanest options for a variety of cloning and recovery scenarios.

Re: ignite format
So it really should be:
make_tape_recovery -x inc_entire=vg00 -x inc_entire=bg01 -x inc_entire=vg02 -a /dev/rmt/0mn -I

Re: ignite format
make_tape_recovery -x inc_entire=vg00 -a /dev/rmt/0mn -l // it says that -l option for an interactive recovery should have an option with it.
Now, what that option can be........

Re: ignite format
Have a look at 'man make_tape_recovery' for the differences.
I recommend to always use '-I'.
