-P s|w|e
When a disk or volume group is partially included in the system recovery archive, generate an
ERROR (e), WARNING (w), or SUPPRESS (s) any warning messages that would normally be
generated when partial inclusions occur. The default is
w, causing WARNING messages to be
produced when partial inclusions of disks and/or volume groups are detected. When
e is
specified, an error message will be displayed to both stdout and to the log file, and execution of
make_tape_recovery
will stop once the error message is displayed.
-m tar|cpio|pax
Specify in which format (tar,
pax,orcpio) the files/directories image on the tape will be
stored.
tar, pax,or cpio may be specified. If this option is not specified,
tar is the default
format.
-r Resumes creation of the System Recovery Tape after the
-p option was used to create the
/var/opt/ignite/recovery/latest
directory, and its *_cfg files have possibly been
edited. If the
-A and -r options are both used, the
-A option will be ignored, since the file
list,
flist, and other configuration files,
*_cfg, have been created and possibly modified.
-u Updates the Ignite-UX software from the Ignite server specified by the
-s option. This is
done only when the version of software on the server is newer than the client. The software
update uses the depot on the server in the location:
/var/opt/ignite/depots/recovery_cmds
. If this depot does not exist, you may use
the
/opt/ignite/lbin/pkg_rec_depot
command to create it. When the -u option
causes the software to be updated, it then automatically restarts the command with the same
options.
-t tape_title_string
Specifies a custom message that will be displayed to the user during a recovery from the tape.
This may be useful in identifying the tape. The default title that will be written to the tape is
of the form: "Recovery tape created from system: hostname on date". This message is only
displayed when booting directly from tape. If using a 2-step boot from DVD/CD, then the -d
option can be used to change the description shown in the user interface.
-v Display verbose progress messages while creating the system recovery archive. Includes infor-
mation such as which volume groups/disks will be included in the system recovery archive.
-x include=file|directory
Includes the file or directory in the recovery archive, but does not cross any mount points.
Note, file names may NOT end with a space.
-x inc_cross=file|directory
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. This option is
for crossing local files system mounts only; not remote file system mounts. Note, file names
may NOT end with a space.
-x inc_entire=disk|vg_name
Includes all file systems contained on the specified disk or volume group. Use a block device
file (e.g., "/dev/dsk/c0t5d0") when specifying a whole-disk (non-volume manager) file system.
Use the volume group name (such as vg00) when you want all file systems that are part of
that LVM volume group to be included in the archive.
-x exclude=file|directory
Excludes the file or directory from the archive. When a directory is specified, no files beneath
that directory will be stored in the archive. If the excluded directory is an unmounted file sys-
tem shown in the /etc/fstab file, a WARNING ("Filesystem xxx is not mounted. It will be
ignored.") message will be displayed.
Note, file names may NOT end with a space.
-x print_manifest_args=<print_manifest arguments>
Passes the given <print_manifest arguments> to the print_manifest command. This can
be done to reduce the amount of time required by make_tape_recovery. Please see
print_manifest(1M) for more details.
XToolkit-Options
The make_tape_recovery command supports a subset of the standard X Toolkit options to
control the appearance of the GUI when the -i option is specified. The supported options
