make_tape_recovery over network

[Lonny Balderston]

Greetings - I am tasked with looking into running make_tape_recovery over the network to another 9000, with the ability to restore over the network as well. Does this require Ignite-UX server be set up? Should make_net_recovery be used rather than m_t_r? Is there a definitive document or website out there for this sort of thing? Thank you.

Ignite does not support remote tape drive with make_tape_recovery so you'll need to look at make_net_recovery instead.

Mahlon,

As of now, make_net_recovery is the only choice for your requirement.

Mahlon,

Yes
u need an ignite_server
u need tne ignite product be the same release on the server and the client.
u need disk space on the ignite server (or on another server)

use make_net_recovery like this :
make_net_recovery -s ignite_server -x inc_entire=vg00 -x inc_entire=vg01 ...

this create a bootable recovery archive and store it on the ignite server.

Hi,
Yes, you need an Ignite server. Of course uou can use the make_net_recovery command but Ignite also has a GUI which is much easier to use.
