Hi Miguel

To boot the system from the ignite tape :

Load ignite tape
Power on the machine
when prompted, interrupt the boot sequence
Boot from tape : eg type boot alternate

Re: RECOVER WITH IGNITE-UX

Hi

To create a full recovery tape of all files in vg00 use the -A option with the command

/opt/ignite/bin/make_recovery -A -C -v -d /dev/rmt/0m

Or since 0m is the default

/opt/ignite/bin/make_recovery -A -C -v -d

The -C option is used to create a lof file consisting of information about the backed-up files

The log is

/var/opt/ignite/recovery/makerec.last

Steve

Miguel

You can also use the check_recovery command at any time to check if a new ignite-UX tape is needed. This command compares system files with the information contained in the ignite log file

You must have used the -C option to allow the use of the check_recovery command
