Ignite recovery question

[Karen Birkelbach]

I have a VM that I created an make_net_recovery from on our Ignite server. I had to recreate the VM and I want to reload that version of the Ignite backup, but it loaded the golden image. Since the MAC address of the VM changed, is there a way to push that particular image out to the "new" server? If not, is there a way to get certain files from the backup once the machine is loaded with the golden image?

Thank you for your help.

Should be able to install the recovery. As you mention, the new MAC address could make Ignite not find the recovery image automatically for install.

Consider going into the /var/opt/ignite/clients directory, and create a copy or soft link to the new MAC address. Then Ignite will probably find it for you.
