FYI: when using "expert recovery shell" from ignite/CD

[Tuan Nguyen_2]

hi,

I hadn't seen this fisrt now (the last time was 3 years ago), you can't "loadfile" a file from the "recovery shell"!!.

e.g.
# loadfile -v ioscan
x ./usr/sbin/ioscan symbolic link to /sbin/ioscan

You get a link instead of a file, apparently Ignite unpack the first "hit", instead of the "real" file.

When executing the command you will get:
# /sbin/ioscan
/sbin/sh: ioscan: not found

The trick to solve this problem is telling loadfile to load the "real/orginal" with the path (it reminded me something like dump/restore in linux).

e.g.
# loadfile -v /sbin/ioscan
x ./sbin/ioscan, 589124 bytes, 1151 tape blocks

As you can see the loadfile shows the size of the file after it extracts the file from the ignite server. Now you can use ioscan.
