make_net_recovery exclude

[Dan Matlock_1]

Can someone tell me which/where can I put the list of logical volumes I want to 'exclude' during my ignite. Unfortunetly years past someone put sybase raw devices on vg00, and I want to exclude them to get ride of the warnings.

-x exclude=/dev/vg00/xyz

the exclude flag works for file and or directories, but not certain for special files.

did you try ?

Hi Dan,

Or if you have a *lot* of excludes then use
-f /full/path/to/contents/file

and in it put

exclude dir_name1
exclude dir_name2
exclude dir_name3
etc.....

But if you use the -f then you can't use -x for any other excludes OR includes.

HTH,
Jeff

Hi Dan

You can use what Jeff has mentioned or if you want it in a single line you could use like this

/opt/ignite/bin/make_tape_recovery -A -x exclude=/usr/lmn -x exclude=/var/tmp -x exclude=/tmp -x exclude=/efg -x exclude=/abc -d /dev/rmt/0m
