Air Cleaner User Manual

The following sections describe the options available from the Change SysBack
Program Defaults menu.
Backup Format Settings
This section contains options for changing the format of the backup itself. The
default format is “Backup/Restore”, or the AIX backup and restore command
format.
Although SysBack creates a data format to store information about the backup
contents and system information and to enable multi-copy and striped backups,
the underlying command used to read and write files within the filesystems is the
AIX backup command.
SysBack now enables the user to use either the AIX backup command or the AIX
tar command for backing up and restoring filesystem data. When any SysBack
backup is restored, SysBack automatically detects the backup type and uses the
appropriate corresponding restore command to restore the data.
Note: The backup command is the default and should not be changed unless
another command provides function that the backup command does not.
To change the filesystem backup command, press Tab to scroll through the options.
You can also press F4 to display a list of the values. The default is
“backup/restore.”
The backup command is used because of its flexibility over other commands and
because it backs up data regarding files such as the access control list (ACL) and the
trusted computing base (TCB).
