make_recovery failure

[Randy Lowe]

I just upgraded from Hp-UX 11.0 to 11.11 and I can not
process a make recovery tape.
This is the message I get in the /var/opt/ignite/logs/makrec.log1
Cannot create SYSCMDS ; no space on the LIF volume
make_medialif: error - lifcp SYSCMDS failed, probable insufficient size for /var/tmp/uxinstlf.recovery
How do I fix this?

Hi,

according to this: http://www.software.hp.com/RELEASES-MEDIA/notices/5990-3569.htm

HP has created patches PHSS_27407 for HP-UX 11.0 and PHSS_27406 for HP-UX 11i to resolve this issue

I never had that problem myself but I think those patch would fix it unless they are already installed !

Thanks,
JP

Hi

try command make_tape_recovery ,as this is better cmd than make_recovery ,hp recommends using make_tape_recovery cmd

apply GOLD patch for 11i december 2002
