Ignite-UX (IUX) Frequently Asked Questions (July 2013)

for more information.
For Ignite-UX servers running 11.31 or later, you must edit the
/etc/dfs/dfstab file to allow access to both the source and target
clients as follows:
# vi /etc/dfs/dfstab
(append ",ro=target" to the -o argument of the source client's line)
# shareall -F nfs
where target is a fully qualified client name. Note that since
this client should not be creating an archive, the client will not
have write access to the archive directory. See dfstab(4) for
more information.
6. Now, boot the client from the Ignite-UX server using any method
you wish. When you install the client, you can select from the
recovery configurations of the source client.

Q: How can I tell which files will be included in the archive created by
make_net_recovery?
A: Execute "/opt/ignite/lbin/list_expander" as described in the next FAQ
question, replacing the -d option (which lists the disks and/or
volume groups) with the -l option, which lists the individual
directories and files that will be included in the archive).

Q: How can I tell which disks or volume groups get re-created during an
installation from a make_net_recovery configuration?
A: Execute the following from the client:
# /opt/ignite/lbin/list_expander -d -f <input_file>
where <input_file> specifies what is to be archived. Refer to
make_net_recovery(4) for details on the format of <input_file>. The
make_net_recovery command can take input from an input file, no
input, or input from the command line with the x option. The
list_expander command can take input from an input file, or no input,
but does not have an x option like make_net_recovery does. To see
the result of using x options, put them in a file and
passlist_expander the file name.
If you used the Ignite-UX GUI to specify what is to be included in the
archive, then the input file can be found on the Ignite-UX server in:
# /var/opt/ignite/clients/<client>/recovery/archive_content
You can copy this file from the server to the client, then run
list_expander against that file.
