# /usr/sbin/newfs -F hfs -f 2048 /dev/vg00/rgoldenimage
respectively for an Image > 2GB
# /usr/sbin/newfs -F hfs -f 2048 -o largefiles /dev/vg00/rgoldenimage
# /usr/bin/mkdir /bootcd
# /usr/sbin/mount /dev/vg00/goldenimage /bootcd
# /usr/bin/cp /tmp/<hostname>.gz /bootcd
# /usr/sbin/umount /bootcd
9) Then create the boot (LIF) header for the tape. For example, create a LIF image based on
/var/opt/ignite/data/Rel_B.11.23/core_archive.cfg . The LIF image will be named
uxinstlf_tape. For further information please see the manpage of make_medialif.
# /opt/ignite/bin/make_medialif\
-f /opt/ignite/data/Rel_B.11.23/config\
-f /var/opt/ignite/data/Rel_B.11.23/core_archive.cfg\
-l /var/opt/ignite/data/Rel_B.11.23/uxinstlf_tape
10) The next step would be to write the LIF header and the Golden Image onto tape. Therefore,
use a Non-Rewind DDS-1 Device, for example:
# /usr/bin/mt -t /dev/rmt/c0t3d0DDS1n rew
# /usr/bin/dd if=/var/opt/ignite/data/Rel_B.11.23/uxinstlf_tape \
of=/dev/rmt/c0t3d0DDS1n obs=2k
# /usr/bin/dd if=/var/opt/ignite/archives/Rel_B.11.23/<hostname>.gz \
of=/dev/rmt/c0t3d0DDS1n obs=10k
# /usr/bin/mt -t /dev/rmt/c0t3d0DDS1n rew
11) Completed a bootable tape. When installing from it, you will receive the "Welcome" screen
of the Cold Installation process. You can also change system parameters like file system
sizes just as in any other type of Ignite-UX recovery.
Creating a Bootable Make_net_recovery DVD-ROM
Note: The make_net_recovery image must be 4.0 Gigs or smaller in size. This is a CDFS
limitation.
The script make_opticaldisc_recovery can be found in the directory
/opt/ignite/data/scripts/examples/. It is designed to create a make_net_recovery
image including vg00, then using the DVD- RW drive on the Ignite server directed to, burn the
image as a bootable recovery DVD using the Ignite server’s DVD-RW drive.
