mksysb...
Hi friends..
My one problem is not resolved yet I have another. I am planning to take an OS backup of my p550 using "mksysb". Now i am confussed. suppose I give the command to take the backup into a tape drive and my backup size exceeds the tape capacity.. what will happen? will it ask for the second tape or will the entire process stop?

a very use full tool
make sure there is no error when it is done make sure you have done a bosboot -ad hdisk0 and also the mirror disk mksysb only backup anything in rootvg you can check this by doing lsvg -l rootvg you can reduce the size by excluding any filesystems that you do not need to backup by adding a file in /etc/exclude.rootvg by default there are some basic stuff in there you can then just use the exclude=yes in smitty mksysb if you have a dvd ram disk you can use smitty mkdvd as well Hope this helps |
