1. Are the following commands equivalent?
# frecover -rvf /dev/rmt/0m
and
# frecover -xvf /dev/rmt/0m
2. Can I assume that neither will overwrite newer or identical files that already exist in vg00 from the Ignite tape?
Solved! Go to Solution.

Re: Recovery using Ignite-UX and frecover
Ideally your fbackup volume would not contain any portions of vg00, only non-root volume groups.

Re: Recovery using Ignite-UX and frecover
What scope was the frecover? Was it the entire system with several VGs, or just vg00?
I would do this in 2 steps,...
1. 'recover -f /dev/rmt/0m -I /tmp/filelist.txt'
from /tmp/filelist.txt, take the non-system lvols and create an include graph file.
perform a 'frecover -f /dev/rmt/0m -g /tmp/nonsys.include', with no overwrite
2. Identify those config files (not executables) that need to be restored, and create a new graph file for these.
perform a 'frecover -f /dev/rmt/0m -g /tmp/sys.include -o' for restoring and overwriting (of course, you would have moved the originals from your install somewhere safe before hand!) Then reboot and see what happens!
Share and Enjoy! Ian

Re: Recovery using Ignite-UX and frecover
- use ignite-ux to clone the vg00
- change hostname and IP address
- restore applications and related data(vg01, vg02...) by using frecover
I always use following command to recover a particular directory:
# frecover -vx -i /tmp -f /dev/rmt/0m
Hope this help you a bit.

Solutionbackup and recovery
Interactive recovery.
You should not have to recvoer any data from vg00. Other volume groups will need to be recovered.
If when you ran fbackup, you had open databases, you will have problems with those files. If the database was down for fbackup everything should be fine

Re: Recovery using Ignite-UX and frecover
do not need to be concerned with restoring anything within vg00 from the fbackup tape (i.e., using frecover), especially since the Ignite tape is a recent one. In other words: depend on the Ignite tape for restoring vg00, and depend on the fbackup tape for restoring any other volume groups and lvol's within them.
But just out of curiosity I wonder if what I suggested in my original question is definitely a bad idea or simply unecessarily time consuming? That is: recreate vg00 from the Ignite tape and then use one of the following frecover commands with the recent fbackup tape:
fbackup -rv OR fbackup -xv
