Top Forums UNIX for Advanced & Expert Users Migrating Solaris 9 to different hardware Post 302100894 by snerta on Sunday 24th of December 2006 04:12:42 AM

I have a tape backup using ufsdump and I know the order of the dump.

The backup is of a sun v440 with solaris 9 and configured for a SAN

I want to create a test environment on a sun e420 with local disks. I have installed solaris 9 on the e420 and created the disk/slice layout the same as the v440. the e420 will not be connected to SAN.

I am at the stage where I can start restoring. What do I restore that is not server specific. I want to transfer the applications and system settings but not the hardware drivers. After the restore I want the e420 to boot.

Hope you can help.

Kin regards,
