Idriz,

First question:

Did you run a make_tape_recovery at 13:07 yesterday?

If not, did you do any lvm work that might have caused vgcfgbackup to be run (it gets run automatically after many of the lvm commands)?

Hi Delic,

Your Ignite logs will be there in /var/opt/ignite/logs.

Hi Delic,

The first one is not the output of ignite process but seems it is pointing to the ignite activity while considering the time stamps ofthe make_recovery and the syslog messages.The syslog messages started at 13:07 while u started the ignite backup process just before that.

Syam

Idriz,

Since I've started running VPARs, I haven't been doing make_tape_recovery any more so I can't really remember. It sounds reasonable to me that these messages would come from the m_t_r command. Could you try running it again to see if the messages show up again?

Hi,
Yes, these are standard o/p showm during make_tape_recovery.

/var/opt/ignite/log stored log report of ignite operations

Idriz,

From the man page:

The make_tape_recovery always stores the archive on the local tape but can store its configuration, log, and status files either locally or on an Ignite-UX server specified by the -s option. If make_tape_recovery stores its configuration files locally, the directory /var/opt/ignite/recovery is used to store the following files. If make_tape_recovery uses the server to store the files, the /var/opt/ignite/clients/0x{LLA}/recovery directory will be used.

Are you using the -s option?

You doesn't have any make_rec.log1 make_rec.log2 in /var/opt/ignite/logs directory?

try to make a :

# find / -name *.log1
or # find / -name make*.log*

Stf ;-)

[I.Delic]

i did not use -s
i used

make_tape_recovery -x inc_entrie=vg00 command

I have all those file in de recovery directory
