Creating a make_net_recovery Archive - Command Line Examples
Archiving only essential core OS files
# /opt/ignite/bin/make_net_recovery -s <Ignite_server>
Note: make_net_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 backed up. /opt/ignite/recovery/mnr_essentials lists the files and directories
that are considered essential.
Archiving the complete root VG
# /opt/ignite/bin/make_net_recovery -Av -s <Ignite_server>
-A: Based on the files that are specified for inclusion, this option identifies the disk(s)
and/or VGs that contain these specified files and includes all files from the
disk(s)/VGs 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.
-v: Verbose mode, error and process logs will be displayed.
Archiving the complete root VG to a different archive location
# /opt/ignite/bin/make_net_recovery -Av \
-a archive_server:archive_directory_path -s <Ignite_server>
