How to restore corrupted vmguest ?

[Jerry_109]

Hello All,

I created a vmguest, and was wondering if anyone knows best practice for preparing to recover my newly created vmguest should it become corrupted? Do you guys use Ignite?

From my vm server ( hohp244 ) I created the vmguest ( hovm230 ).

Hi

As you mentioned, ignite backup would be the best option.

Dear friend
u can use ignite tool for boot disk
command is make_tape_recovery -x inc_entire=vg00
it will u root volume group in backup media
once system is crashed u can boot the system from the backup media
