DIAGNOSTICS
All major steps within network recovery are logged on the server and displayed via the Ignite-UX Server
GUI.
FILES
make_tape_recovery
always stores the archive on the local tape but may store its configuration, log, and status files
either locally or on an Ignite-UX server specified by the
-s server option. If
make_tape_recovery
stores its configuration files locally, the directory
/var/opt/ignite/recovery
is used to store the following files. If
make_tape_recovery
uses the server to store the files, the
/var/opt/ignite/clients/0x
LLA/recovery direc-
tory will be used. The following list is the configuration directory and files as found on the server.
To have a full list of configuration, log, and status files on the local system, substitute the local direc-
tory for the server directory.
/opt/ignite/recovery/mnr_essentials
Lists the files and directories that are considered essential and are always included in the archive if
they exist on the system.
/var/opt/ignite/recovery/mnr_essentials
Lists the files and directories that are essential, but acts as the user modifiable version so that the
original mnr_essentials file may be maintained. When this file exists, its content is checked before
the file
/opt/ignite/recovery/mnr_essentials
.
/var/opt/ignite/clients/0x
LLA/recovery
The per-clients recovery directory. It holds the client’s recovery configuration, log, and status files
as described below.
/var/opt/ignite/clients/0x
LLA/recovery/archive_content
Supplies files and directories to be included or excluded. Using the -x command line arguments
will cause this file to be ignored.
/var/opt/ignite/clients/0x
LLA/recovery/latest
A symlink to the date ,time directory containing the newest set of recovery files as described below.
/var/opt/ignite/clients/0x
LLA/recovery/date,time
Directory containing files pertaining to the
make_tape_recovery
command that was run with
the
-s option at the date and time indicated in the directory name. An example path looks like:
/var/opt/ignite/clients/0x
080009123456 /2000-12-20,13:50
/var/opt/ignite/clients/0x
LLA/recovery/date,time /system_cfg
Configuration file which describes the file system and networking configuration of the system (gen-
erated by the save_config(1M) command).
/var/opt/ignite/clients/0x
LLA/recovery/date,time /archive_cfg
Configuration file which supplies the location and access method to the archive containing the files
to be restored.
/var/opt/ignite/clients/0xLLA/recovery/date,time /control_cfg
Configuration file which supplies control parameters and the command scripts to import volume
groups that will be preserved and not created during the recovery.
/var/opt/ignite/clients/0xLLA/recovery/date,time /flist
"File" list file which supplies the list of files that are to be archived. This is a plain text file, but
should not be modified. Each line is in a special format that, if altered, could cause problems with
the archive process.
/var/opt/ignite/clients/0xLLA/recovery/config.local
or /var/opt/ignite/recovery/config.local An optional configuration file that the user
may create to add configuration information to be used during the recovery of the client. For exam-
ple, you may want to add to this file to a post_config_cmd to remirror disks that the recovery
process unmirrored. See the document /opt/ignite/share/doc/diskmirror.pdf for an
example. Once this file is created, make_tape_recovery will automatically add it to any new
configurations that it adds to the LIF area.
/var/opt/ignite/clients/0xLLA/recovery/date,time /recovery.log
Default log file location for make_tape_recovery.
