Operating Systems HP-UX Creating A Make Recovery Tape Post 25092 by Kelam_Magnus on Wednesday 24th of July 2002 12:26:17 PM

www.itrc.com is the online support. go to search.

I am also an HPUX admin. It is very unlikely that make_recovery did this. There is most likely something else going on.

Have you checked the syslog.log for any errors or config info?

It sounds more likely that someone is doing an export of the filesystems. That is the only way that I know of to remove every entry for a filesystem/logical volume/volume group and /dev entries for disks.

If someone is trying to backup this information usign the vgexport command they need to use the "-p" option to ensure that they ONLY make a Mapfile and not actually export the filesystems and everything else as well.


I could be wrong, but I'll wager that is it. Let me know.

Also check the /var/adm/cron/log for any suspcious scripts executed by cron.

I hope this is your problem, otherwise I would get HP Support involved. 800-593-6602.

NAME
Sys::Filesystem::Aix - Return AIX filesystem information to Sys::Filesystem SYNOPSIS
See Sys::Filesystem. INHERITANCE
Sys::Filesystem::Aix ISA UNIVERSAL METHODS
version () Return the version of the (sub)module. ATTRIBUTES
The following is a list of filesystem properties which may be queried as methods through the parent Sys::Filesystem object. account Used by the dodisk command to determine the filesystems to be processed by the accounting system. boot Used by the mkfs command to initialize the boot block of a new filesystem. check Used by the fsck command to determine the default filesystems to be checked. dev Identifies, for local mounts, either the block special file where the filesystem resides or the file or directory to be mounted. free This value can be either true or false. (Obsolete and ignored). mount Used by the mount command to determine whether this file system should be mounted by default. nodename Used by the mount command to determine which node contains the remote filesystem. size Used by the mkfs command for reference and to build the file system. type Used to group related mounts. vfs Specifies the type of mount. For example, vfs=nfs specifies the virtual filesystem being mounted is an NFS filesystem. vol Used by the mkfs command when initializing the label on a new filesystem. The value is a volume or pack label using a maximum of 6 characters. log The LVName must be the full path name of the filesystem logging logical volume name to which log data is written as this file system is modified. This is only valid for journaled filesystems. SEE ALSO
