HP 9000 Containers A.03.01 on HP Integrity Server Administrator Guide HP-UX 11i v3 (5900-3112, June 2013)

4.3.2 Using Ignite-UX network recovery archive
You can use an existing Ignite-UX network recovery archive to recover an HP 9000 image on the
target server. However, you cannot use Ignite-UX to do the image recovery because it cannot be
restored to an alternate root directory.
To recover an HP 9000 image from an Ignite-UX network recovery archive:
1. Identify the archive. By default, it is located on the Ignite-UX server in the /var/opt/ignite/
recovery/archives/<HP 9000-host-name> directory.
2. Copy the archive file to the Integrity server (or make it visible via an NFS-mount). Do not keep
the archive in the root directory on the system.
3. Uncompress the archive.
4. Recover the image:
$ /opt/HP9000-Containers/bin/hp9000_recover_image \
<hp9000_root> <image-file>
5. Ignore any errors related to the recovery of the dev directory that are recorded in the log file.
4.3.3 Using Ignite-UX tape recovery archive
You can use an existing Ignite-UX tape recovery archive to recover an HP 9000 image on the
target server. However, you cannot use Ignite-UX to do the image recovery because it cannot be
restored to an alternate root directory.
To recover an HP 9000 image from an Ignite-UX tape recovery archive:
1. Insert the tape into a compatible drive.
2. Extract the archive into file system:
$ copy_boot_tape -u /dev/rmt/0mn -d <directory>
3. Identify the file that corresponds to the file system image in the extracted archive. Typically,
this is the largest file in the extract. In the case of HP-UX 11i v1, it is usually named file0002.
4. Copy the archive file to the Integrity server (or make it visible via an NFS-mount). Do not keep
the archive in the root directory on the system.
5. Recover the archive:
$ /opt/HP9000-Containers/bin/hp9000_recover_image \
<hp9000_root> <image-file>
6. Ignore any errors related to the recovery of the dev directory that are recorded in the log file.
4.3.4 Using cpio, tar, and frecover recovery archive
To recover an HP 9000 image using cpio, tar, and frecover:
1. Do one of the following:
—In the case of file archive, copy the files to HP-UX 11i v3 server (or make it visible via an
NFS mount). Do not keep the archive in the root directory on the system.
Recover the archive:
$ /opt/HP9000-Containers/bin/hp9000_recover_image \
<hp9000_root> <image-file>
—In the case of tape archive, insert the tape into the Integrity server and configure the tape
device file in the HP-UX 11i v3 system (/dev/rtape/tape1_BEST).
Recover the archive:
$ /opt/HP9000-Containers/bin/hp9000_recover_image \
