Make a full system backup
I want to make a full system backup, in case of disaster, I can restore all HPUX files.
Please tell me, the command:
fbackup -f /dev/rmt/0m -i /
is enough to have a backup in the tape?
How to restore, in case of disaster (presuming that HPUX will not run in init 0)?
Thank you.

Re: Make a full system backup
It will do for restoring lost and corrupted files, however for a disaster recovery,
you need to have in conjunction aan
Ignite backup of your boot disk vg00
You should do your fbackup frequently
weekly and monthly.
Your Ignite backups you need to do only after
a change to your vg00 or to your kernel.
So you need both.
Beware.

Re: Make a full system backup
The best way to take full system backup is using make_tape_recovery the full command is
# /opt/ignite/bin/make_tape_recovery -Av -a /dev/rmt/0mn
It will take full vg00 into your defualt tape drive
if you want to take full backup of vg00 and vg01 and you want to dump /tmp then the command will be
# make_tape_recovery ├в x inc_entire=vg00 ├в x inc_entire=vg01 ├в x exclude=/tmp

Re: Make a full system backup
You need to follow two step backup recovery process for disaster recovery plan.
Use ignite to take OS(VG00) backup and fbackup for other filesystem(non-VG00) backup.
To take entire vg00 backup.
#make_tape_recovery -I -Av
To take other VG's backup.
#fbackup -vf /dev/rmt/0m -g
Note: here
In case of disaster, first you need to restore the ignite tape followed by frecover to bring the system to earlier state.

Re: Make a full system backup
The ignite ux make_tape_recovery command creates a system recovery tape that can be used to boot and recover a system that has become unbootable root disk or root volume group.
1.load writable tape in u system
enter the command
make_tape_recovery -x inc_entire=vg00
thanks and regards

Re: Make a full system backup
As per my liitle experience we are taking the os (if it is vg00)backup through ignite(only if ignite is enabled in that server)
through make_tape_recovery -Av -a
and the file system backup using fbackup,or else you can simply use SAM for the same purpose
SAM---backup and recovery--interactive backup and recovery---actions ---backup fies ---Add all required logical volumes there.
using this fbackup will occur for the file systems.
