system copy

[paula hawk_2]

We have a V2200 Server running 11.0 that crashed. WHen the system came back up the /stand file system did not. Fschdsk will not clean the disk. We want to replace. Does anyone know the procedures? System disk is a 4gb. We have ignite software, but no tape drive.

Hi,

Boot the server with the Recovery CD ( Core Media CD ) and then go to the Run Recovery Shell option.

# chroot_lvmdisk (this is a script)

# cd ROOT; chroot /ROOT /sbin/sh
# vgchange -a y /dev/vg00
# swapon /dev/vg00/lvol2 (this is default check with lvlnboot -v)
# fsck /dev/vg00/rlvol6 (if this is /usr)
# mount /dev/vg00/lvol6 /usr

and do this (fsck, mount) for all the FS you want to (/var, /tmp, ...).

When everything is done don??t shutdown, use:

# umount -a
# vgchange -a n /dev/vg00

exit and reboot from the recovery shell main menu

If you have the Ignite software installed...did you make a recovery tape anytime ??? If not then there is no option other then reloading the OS....incase your root data is not important. After reloading the OS you can mount the old disk and get some of the data.
