A question about make_sys_image

Hi all
I've installed an L1000 system with 11iv1 and Oracle 10g on it.
And I want to make a gold image of the L1000 system because it took me such a long time to install and configure the Oracle database successfully.
Now I have a question:
If I use the "make_sys_image" command, will it include "/u01" and "/u02" file system(which are respective application and datafile of Oracle instance by the way)?
And if I use the archive to recover other system which has exactly same hardware environment,will it successfully(Because I want to configure an MC)?
Thank you

Re: A question about make_sys_image

Hi,

By default, make_sys_image will only archive vg00. You should try to use these command for golden image:

# make_sys_image -s -R -g -d

where is file contains list of file to be archive, you should put the /u01 and /u02 directory to this file, see man make_sys_image for more details

Can't ensure it will success or not since golden image is only for system image not including oracle, perhaps if you try, you could tell us :)

Regards,
Sandy
I never think of the future. It comes soon enough.
