We have had that error message ever since we moved to AIX 5.2. We have been told by IBM that it is no problem and that it is due to an internal parameter that has not been increased as the O/S size has grown. We have restored happily from them without problems.

Hi Pascalbout,
try looking in /var/adm/ras for your log file. The message indicates that the boot size is larger than what may boot from tape. You could reduce the boot image size by removing unnecessary device files. However if you need to boot from tape, and your system hangs because of this boot image size then just use an install CD to get the system booted. Then restore the tape as usual. |
