how to take image of one and installing that on another machine??? Need help
Hi,
How can I have a clone of one solaris machine on another? I have two sun solaris machines with same hardware and same OS but one has few other software installed.
Now I want to take a backup (image) of one machine remotely because the tape drive is configured on some other LANed machine. And installed that image on another solais machine.
Is it possible to do? Can anyone suggest on this? I tried google a lot but didn't find any appropriate answer.
Please help me in this regards...
Thanks...
