make_tape_recovery

[BREUILLER]

Hi,

We have a problem with the command "make_tape_recovery" :

WARNING: Failed to open lockfile: /var/opt/ignite/recovery/mnr_lockfile: No
such file or directory (errno = 2)

Is there an exhaustive list of all possible warnings and errors?

Thanks.

Hi:

Make sure that you have a directory named '/var/opt/ignite/recovery' that is writable, readable and executable (so that it can be searched).

Regards!

Hi,
have a look at the document at:
http://docs.hp.com/en/B2355-90959/index.html
page 204 onward.

"The contents of the system recovery archive will always include all files and directories that are considered essential to bringing up a functional system. This essential list is predefined by make_tape_recovery and is located in the following file:

/opt/ignite/recovery/mnr_essentials

In addition to the essential list, data can be included in the archive on a disk/volume group, file, or directory basis. Nonessential files and directories can also be excluded."

Yes the directory "/var/opt/ignite/recovery" is writable, readable and executable.

I'd log a call with HP support as I think this maybe a defect wrt ignite ....

And what about the exhaustive list of possible warnings and errors ?

Hi,

There should be an ignite log under /var/opt/ignite (I dont have access to a HP-UX system ATM) for your execution of make_tape_recovery.

Have you checked that?
