Note: make_tape_recovery will check if there are configuration files from previously saved
archives. If no configuration files exist that have different settings, only a core OS (essential
files) will be archived. /opt/ignite/recovery/mnr_essentials lists the files and directories
that are considered essential.
Archiving the complete root volume group using the default device file /dev/rmt/0mn
# /opt/ignite/bin/make_tape_recovery –v –x inc_entire=vg00
or
# /opt/ignite/bin/make_tape_recovery –v –x inc_entire=vg00 -s
<Ignite_server>
Note: For VxVM rootdg use: -x inc_entire=rootdg
Note: Remember that the “-A” option is different from make_recovery:
-A: Based on the files that are specified for inclusion, this option identifies the disk(s)
and/or VG(s) that contain these files and includes all files from the disk(s)/VG(s) in
the archive. If no further files are specified for inclusion, the default essentials file list
/opt/ignite/recovery/mnr_essentials is used for specifying the included files.
Archiving the complete root VG using a non-default device file
# /opt/ignite/bin/make_tape_recovery –v –x inc_entire=vg00 \
-a c0t1d0BESTn
or
# /opt/ignite/bin/make_tape_recovery -v –x inc_entire=vg00 -a c0t1d0BESTn
-s <Ignite_server>
-a: Tape drive device file. Always use a no-rewind device file. You can use DDS and
supported DLT tape drives. For supported DLT's please see the Release Notes at
www.hp.com/go/Ignite-UX.
Archiving complete VGs/disks - including and excluding files and directories
# /opt/ignite/bin/make_tape_recovery -x inc_entire=vg00 \
-x inc_entire=vg01
or
# /opt/ignite/bin/make_tape_recovery -x inc_entire=vg00 \
-x inc_entire=vg01 -s <Ignite_server>
-x inc_entire=vg_name|/dev/dsk/<name>: Includes all file systems contained on the
VG. Use the VG name (such as vg00) when all file systems that are part of that LVM
VG are to be included in the archive. Disk can also be specified. For this, use a block
