make_net_recovery(1M) make_net_recovery(1M)
identifiers:
include filename | directory
Includes the specified filename or directory and all subdirectories and associated files.
Mount points are not crossed and symbolic links are not followed. Note, file names may
NOT end with a space.
inc_cross filename | directory
Include the specified filename or directory and all subdirectories and files contained
underneath subdirectories. Local mount points are crossed but symbolic links are not fol-
lowed. Note, file names may NOT end with a space.
inc_entire volume group | disk
Include the entire specified volume group (e.g., "vg00") or disk (block device - e.g.,
"/dev/dsk/c0t5d0"). Do not specify a disk if it is part of a volume group.
inc_all_affected
Is equivalent to using -A option. Based on the files that are specified for inclusion, this
option determines which disk(s) and/or volume group(s) contain those specified files, and
includes all files from those disk(s) and/or volume group(s) in the archive.
exclude filename | directory
Exclude the specified filename or directory and all subdirectories and files contained
under the subdirectories. Note, file names may NOT end with a space.
make_net_recovery reads the contents file to generate the list of files that will be used to create the
system recovery archive. The contents file may be modified by hand or by running
make_net_recovery in interactive mode. When modifying the contents file, keep the following
points in mind:
• No essential file or directory may be excluded. Exclusions of essential files or directories will
be ignored.
• Exclusions take precedence over inclusions. Anything that is both included and excluded will
be excluded from the archive.
• The ordering of inclusions and exclusions within the defaults file is not significant.
• File names may NOT end with a space.
• The files and directories under NFS or LOFS mounts will not be archived.
Using Settings From Previous Archive Creation
The defaults file stores input specified by interacting with the make_net_recovery GUI. Options are
preserved until the next archive is generated by interacting with the GUI. Command-line options will over-
ride settings in the defaults file. The full path for the defaults file is
/var/opt/ignite/clients/0xLLA/recovery/defaults on the Ignite-UX server. This direc-
tory is accessed via NFS from the client.

Saving the LIF Area
The LIF area of a disk will be archived and restored if it is different from the default LIF area. This means
if either the auto-boot line in the AUTO LIF file is not "hpux" or the LIF files in addition to ISL, HPUX,
LABEL, and AUTO are present, then the LIF files will be copied to /usr/lib/ignite_bootlif.
These LIF files will be restored to the LIF area unless a LIF file with the same name already exists or the
AUTO file contains something other than hpux.
