for example
# /opt/ignite/bin/make_net_recovery -Av -a host2:/my_archives -s host1
-a: Specifies the NFS server and location to store the archive. The archive directory
must be NFS exported and sufficient disk space is required.
Archiving complete VGs/disks and including and excluding files and directories
# /opt/ignite/bin/make_net_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 you want all file systems that are part
of that LVM VG to be included in the archive. You also can specify disks. For this,
use a block device file of the format /dev/dsk/<name> when specifying a whole-
disk (non-LVM) file system.
Further -x arguments:
-x include=file|dir: Includes the file or directory in the recovery archive but does
not cross any mount points.
-x inc_cross=file|dir: Includes the file or directory in the recovery archive and
crosses mount points to access any directories that are mounted or files contained in
directories that are mounted.
-x exclude=file|dir: Excludes the file or directory from the archive. When a
directory is specified, no files beneath that directory will be stored in the archive.
Please see also "Archive configuration policies".
Archiving choosing the archive contents in interactive mode
# /opt/ignite/bin/make_net_recovery –i -s <Ignite_server>
-i: Causes make_net_recovery to run interactively to allow you to select which files
and directories are to be included in the recovery archive.
Note: It is better to initiate directly from the Ignite-UX server. If used remotely, do not forget to
press <add selected disk/vg> for the vg00 in the Archive Content screen archive the
complete vg00. Otherwise only a core OS will be backed up!
