Ignite Server

[Waqar Razi]

We use tape based ignite backups. We are planning to build ignite server to store network based ignite backups of servers.

Can some one please give me steps to accomplish that?

Any help in this regard is highly appreciated

How do we restore from an ignite backup stored on a network server?

[Waqar Razi]

The ignite backup has been taken using make_net_recovery command. Lets say we want to restore using that backup on network server, what are the steps to do that?

[Torsten.]

Did you read the manual already?

All steps are there.

You need to boot the server via network directly from the ignite server. Note: there are different procedures for PA-RISC and Integrity servers.

Shalom,

This is an RTFM situation. Torsten has provided you the manual.

Ignite supports boot/recovery of IA-64 Itanium and PA-RISC systems.

Hi

Waqar,

now as suggested by Torsten and SEP you shall need to boot the client which you have taken the make_net_recovery backup from the network.

If that is a PARISC client , go to the BCH Main menu and give a command search

BCH MaIN MEnu> search

identify the LAN Path and corresponding "PX"
then do

BCH MAIN MENU>boot PX

FOR the IA Client scenario boot from teh EFI Shall with the LAN

Shell>lanboot select
select the LAN I/f that you want to boot through


Ignite Inatall Screen opens following that.
