Ignite Issue

[Waqar Razi]

I am taking ignite of L3000, HPUX 11.00 based server. The ignite process stales at this point and doesnt go beyond this:

Checking Versions of Ignite-UX filesets
* Creating System Configuration.
WARNING: The volume group /dev/vg00 will be only partially included in the
System Recovery Archive. This means that not all files and
directories on this volume group will be restored when the archive is
installed. This message can be suppressed using the "-P s" option for
make_tape_recovery. See make_tape_recovery(1M) for more details.

* /opt/ignite/bin/save_config -f
/var/opt/ignite/recovery/2009-02-03,11:46/system_cfg vg00

Can some one give me some clue please?

Did you use the -x inc_entire=vg00 option of the make_tape_recovery command?

This hangs before it go for Archieving on tape

Please check with the preview mode

# make_tape_recovery -v -x inc_entire=vg00 -p

Please post the output here..

No we are excluding some file systems from the vg00:

Here is the command we are using:

/opt/ignite/bin/make_tape_recovery -Ava /dev/rmt/0mn \
-x exclude=/opt/wment41 \
-x exclude=/opt/webMethods6 \
-x exclude=/opt/app/oracle/product/9.2.0 \
-x exclude=/opt/app/oracle/admin/wmrepo \
-x exclude=/opt/webMethods6/IntegrationServer/pipeline \
-x exclude=/var/opt/webmethods \
-x exclude=/var/opt/activesw

It always work but this time it stops at this point and never go beyond it.

To see exactly where save_config is failing, this command can be used:

# sh -x /opt/ignite/bin/save_config > /tmp/save_config.out 2>&1

Check the /tmp/save_config.out

[Avinash20]

Also save_config normally scans all disk at this stage. Check for any paths with NO_HW.

check for paths with NO_HW and remove with rmsf once you confirm u no longer need them
