Mksysb Equivalent For Linux?
I have experience with making bootable images of AIX systems using mksysb and wondered if there was some type of equivalent software for Linux. Or perhaps some of the folks here have alternatives or unique ideas for how they are backing up their Linux systems enabling them to recover them as quickly as possible. I am looking to experiment on what some of the best ways to recover the operating systems and data may be.

2. Linux
Hi all...
In my Unix system a program exists called "daemon2" which is responsible to enqueue program executions. For example, if I want to make the system to enqueue lpr executions for certain users, I call daemon2 with lpr as the parameter.
Is there an equivalent in Linux?
Thanks

Hi Guys,
Does hp-ux has mksysb equivalent with aix? Or something similar that you can save the system config.
Or you just backup the boot image, that's it.
Thanks in advance,

I moved to a Linux system from Windows a few months ago. Most of the programs I had been using were already native to Linux (Firefox, the GIMP, Pari, etc.) and most others I found a close enough program (Crimson Editor -> gedit, Visual Studio -> KDevelop, Primo -> Morain's ECPP).
Now I'm down... (1 Reply)

GSIGNAL(3) Linux Programmer's Manual GSIGNAL(3)
NAME
gsignal, ssignal - software signal facility
SYNOPSIS
#include <signal.h>
typedef void (*sighandler_t)(int);
int gsignal(intsignum);
sighandler_t ssignal(int signum, sighandler_t action);
Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see feature_test_macros(7)):
gsignal(), ssignal(): _SVID_SOURCE
DESCRIPTION
Don't use these functions under Linux. Due to a historical mistake, under Linux these functions are aliases for raise(3) and signal(2),
respectively.
Elsewhere, on System V-like systems, these functions implement software signaling, entirely independent of the classical signal(2) and
kill(2) functions. The function ssignal() defines the action to take when the software signal with number signum is raised using the func-
tion gsignal(), and returns the previous such action or SIG_DFL. The function gsignal() does the following: if no action (or the action
SIG_DFL) was specified for signum, then it does nothing and returns 0. If the action SIG_IGN was specified for signum, then it does noth-
ing and returns 1. Otherwise, it resets the action to SIG_DFL and calls the action function with argument signum, and returns the value
returned by that function. The range of possible values signum varies (often 1-15 or 1-17).
CONFORMING TO
These functions are available under AIX, DG/UX, HP-UX, SCO, Solaris, Tru64. They are called obsolete under most of these systems, and are
broken under Linux libc and glibc. Some systems also have gsignal_r() and ssignal_r().
