Full System Backup Sco 5.0.5

I would like to know if I can do a full system back
up on my Unix Sco openserver 5.0.5 Machine. If so, What
is the syntax to do this or where can I find this
information at?
Also, is it possible to make this tape bootable so
that I can easily do a full system restore? Any
information on this would be appreciated!!!
Thanks!

There's a system backup in "scoadmin" or you will find it in your GUI.

However: I do NOT recommend using this. You should use one of the "Supertars": A.P. Lawrence Linux/Unix Consultant: Super Tars

I have either lonetar or backupedge loaded on the few SCO systems I admin for. I feel safe recomending these products as I have used them both. the products will create bootable floppys that you can use to restore your system from a master backup. It wll on the restore format your disk (if its a new harddrive) and restore it. This is assuming that all other hardware is the same. If hardware has been changed then it gets a little more complicated.

They are both great for SCO.

I've not heard of the supertars. I willhave to take a look at them. thanks for the info.
