Creating recovery tape by using Ignite on a mirrored VG

Dear all,
Does anybody know that should I break the mirror before I performed the make_tape_recovery command to make a recovery tape??? As I would like to make a recovery tape for my mirrored root VG, it would be so nice if someone answer me asap, many thanks, I appreciate it.

Cheers

Hi Sun33,

No need to break the mirror, just run the make_tape_recovery command.

Hi Robert-Jan
Thanks for your kindly reply, so do I need to consider if it is a PA-RISC system or Itanium-Based system??Or should I treat them the same way??thanks

Add on, remember if you have to recover your system from your make_tape_recovery you will have to mirror your system manualy. Ignite will NOT create the mirror.

got it, I am reading the Ignite-UX and MirrorDisk/UX manual now, there are a lot of steps to mirror the root disk on both HP9000 system and HP Integrity Server :( ....long way to go.... but anyway, thank you so much for your help, I really appreciate it.

Hi,

Example of correct already restored make_tape_recovery command:

make_tape_recovery -x inc_entire=vg00 -I -v -a /dev/rmt/..
