Restore OS from Ignite Server to a new server

[ManojK_1]

Hi,

I have configured ignite server in our rnvironment.

I have taken all of my HP Unix servers OS backup to this server. OS restoration to the respective servers are happening properly.

Now i want to restore image of one server already taken in Ignite server to an another new server.

How can i achieve this?

Hi,

lets say source is server1, target is server2,

1. if you haven't got ignite backup of server2 before, create directory with it's mac adress and link to it's hostname.

#cd /var/opt/ignite/clients
#mkdir 0x0014C21083EC
#ln -s 0x0014C21083EC server2

2. copy CINDEX and recovery directory from server1 to server2

#cd server1
#cp -r CINDEX recover ../server2/

3. share server1's archive directory

#vi /etc/dfs/dfstab
#share -F nfs -o sec=sys,anon=2,rw=server1:server2 /var/opt/ignite/recovery/archives/server1
#shareall -F nfs

now you can restore from ignite-server just as restoring from it's own image.
