make_tape_recovery fails
I want to do a bootable tape of our system containing 2 harddisks and separated to 2 vol groups into 1 DDS4 tape. I tried to do a preview of the make_tape_recovery but the make_tape_recovery process ended unsuccessfully. Here's the sample output:
make_tape_recovery -x inc_entire=vg00 -x inc_entire=vg01 -p

Re: make_tape_recovery fails
Your ignite Ux version is quite old and has many limitations & bugs. I would suggest to go with a latest version of ignite which should be able to solve this. This version of ignite do not even support file size above 2GB. I doubt if this is not the reason as you are including vg01 in your backup which could have some data files of sizes above that.
If vg01 has big files before upgrading you can try backup by only including vg00 in backup.

Re: make_tape_recovery fails
I am suspecting you are running Veriats and vxconfigd is not running
do a ps -ef| grep vxconfigd
if you don't see it, just do a vxconfigd
and that should solve it.
thanks

Re: make_tape_recovery fails
The limitations are mentioned in the link
http://docs.hp.com/en/IUX/docs/release_note.html
And the latest version of ignite can be obtained from

$ /opt/ignote/lbin/list_expander > /dev/null
WARNING: '/usr/sbin/sudo' is part of a circular link.
ERROR: Circular link error encountered. Aborting.
I deleted the circular link and make_tape_recovery continued on it's way.
