Hello i am new on Solaris, and i need to migrate my old AIX 5.3 to Solaris 11.2
Now i have all apps working fine but i have the backup cause i was reading and i have not idea about what method must i choose.
Btw on AIX i had a mksysb backup to restore all system and obviously another backups to the database soft and data.
Now i have not idea about how to take a full backup of the global zone with the zones (excluding datafiles)
My library is
IBM TotalStorage 3582 Model L23
Ultrium Tape Drive
type 3582-l23
tells to use the zfs send command for data backup and zfs receive for a restore.
The output can be redirected to a (big!) file or a device (e.g. a tape drive that is represented as a device).
If you have a robotic tape library, then you better look for a professional (mostly commercial) data backup application that can handle multiple tape drives. Contact Oracle or IBM for suggestions.

Storix makes a mksysb-like product for Solaris and Linux. You can back up the entire system with zones and restore to the same or dissimilar hardware. Unlike a mksysb, you can back up more than just the root OS.
