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.
