Creating a Bootable Golden System Image Tape
Note: Because files like /etc/hosts and devices files are temporarily removed from the clients
system during the execution of make_sys_image, the system should not be in use!
Please repeat step 1) to 4) of chapter "Creating a Golden System image".
5) Copy the config files and edited them correspondingly:
For HP-UX 11.x copy /opt/ignite/data/examples/core11.cfg to
/var/opt/ignite/data/Rel_B.11.##/golden_image_cd.cfg
6) Change following in the section sw_source:
source_type="MT"
change_media=FALSE  uncomment this line
7) Then comment these lines:
# nfs_source = "15.1.54.123:/var/opt/ignite/archives"
# ftp_source = "anonymous@15.1.54.123:iux"
# remsh_source = user@15.1.54.123
Rename the archive_path in the section init sw_sel "golden image1", so it matches
the name of the Golden Image:
archive_path = "<hostname>.gz"
and eventually change the description
description = "My Golden System Archive"
Obtain the file system size information of the Golden Image with archive_impact:
# /opt/ignite/lbin/archive_impact -t -g \
/var/opt/ignite/archives/Rel_B.11.23/<hostname>.gz
Exchange the current sample "impacts" lines of the config file with the output of the
archive_impact command, for example:
impacts = "/" 30 Kb
impacts = "/etc" 1722 Kb
impacts = "/opt" 123430 Kb
…
8) In the next step an HFS file system needs to be created which is a little larger than the
Golden Image:
# /usr/sbin/lvcreate -L <image+10%-MB> -n goldenimage /dev/vg00
