Re: Full backup of HP unix server
If you do a full backup with DP, of course you backup all the system files in all filesystem selected. DP is not ignite, so if you want to restore your system, get a ignite backup first and after that made the restore to be up to date.

Re: Full backup of HP unix server
Ignite backup is done when you use the make_net_recovery or make_tape_recovery.
With this backup you could restore your system and you could if you want change it for example increase / reinstall it, or clone it to another box
Look at the faq http://www.docs.hp.com/en/IUX/faq.html
and docs about it
http://www.docs.hp.com/en/IUX/infolib.html

Re: Full backup of HP unix server
> Can you suggest how to do the ignite backup
Ignite recovery backups are intended to consist only of the vg00 standard filesystems. This makes cloning and recovery simple. Non-vg00 filesystems and volume groups are intended to be backed up independently. In the event that you need to re-Ignite a server, the Ignite recovery image is used to re-create the vg00 volume and its contents and 'vgimport's of non-vg00 volumes are used to regain ownership of those physical volumes with their data stores.
TO create an Ignite recovery tape of vg00, do:
# make_tape_recovery -x inc_entire=vg00 -I -v -a /dev/rmt/0mn
Note the use of a no-rewind device file.
Regards!

Re: Full backup of HP unix server
#ioscan -fnCtape------->Identify ur Tape device
Generic command syntax for make_tape_recovery is:
# make_tape_recovery -x inc_entire=vg00 -I -v -a /dev/rmt/?mn
For example:
#make_tape_recovery -x inc_entire=vg00 -I -v -a /dev/rmt/0mn
OR
#make_tape_recovery -x inc_entire=vg00 -I -v -a /dev/rmt/1mn
OR
#make_tape_recovery -x inc_entire=vg00 -I -v -a /dev/rmt/2mn
Where:
-a=Tape Drive OR tape_device_file Specifies the tape device file
-x=Content option OR content_option Specifies the included/excluded disk/volume groups
-I= option means cause the Ignite process to be interactive
when booting from tape
-v=Specifies verbose output.
***Note:They are for different modes of the same tape. The
widely used tape device name is /dev/rmt/0mn.
1. /dev/rmt/0m = no rewind when the tape is mounted
and has completed a backup.
2. /dev/rmt/0mn = will automatically rewind when the
backup is complete.
Please use /dev/rmt/0mn.
