Ralf,

I never used the ignite gui myself but this "inc_entire" should be a selectable option under one of the menubar pull down menus. Usually I'd check options or preferences. I am neither near a system nor I shall be in the next couple of hours to check where it could be but what I told is a general expectation.

From the GUI, when you choose a volume group like /dev/vg00 it will be inc_entire, and in the pathname field you can put: / inc_cross. I didn't try it before but hope this helps.

The options are available in the Ignite GUI interface as you select the backup options, you highlight the VG and select Include the entire VG. The vg00 VG is usually selected in full by default.

Re: make_net_recovery

I use the following command and it works like a charm!

./make_tape_recovery â I â x inc_entire=vg00 â a /dev/rmt/xxx


Good luck!

Re: make_net_recovery

I suspect the problem could be because of the symbolic links.
By default, if the symbolic link to a file or directory is included then only the link will be included in the archive and not the file or directory.

Similarly if a diectory contains local mount point then files and directories under local mount points will not be included. This can be specified using option inc_cross in the selection.
