Solved: Re: Mondo rescue rpm for the itanium platform

Geetha_1 · ‎03-07-2007

Can some one tell me where I could locate the Mondo Rescue rpm (binary not source) for the ia64 platform?

We have HP Integrity rx4640 servers (itanium processor). I checked out mondorescue.org and I can find rpms for most architecture except ia64.
Thanks.
Geetha.

What linux distro are you using?

"The difference between me and you? I will read the man page." and "Respect the hat." and "You could just do a search on ITRC, you don't need to start a thread on a topic that's been answered 100 times already." Oh, and "What. no points???"

RHEL AS 4

Shalom,

ia64 is Itanium.

As to whether I'd rely on this as DR I'm not sure.

Commercial support, might make you feel warmer and fuzzier.

It's not available for RHEL AS 4 yet. Only RHEL AS 3. You could download src rpm here:

ftp://ftp.mondorescue.org/rhel/4/

and try an rpmbuild. here is a doc:

Should I take the source and build it for RHEL4? Thanks.

I would look into akronis as SEP suggested. Building the rpm may or may not have bugs associated with it. Pius getting support may prove difficult. I am actually going to look into using akronis after looking at the product page. Looks useful, plus it's a red hat certified piece of software.
