Recovering a failed system
Hi,My system is not booting and at the startup it is getting struck.In HMC error code is coming as 0000, I know the reason of failing.I have few queries on recovery, please answer:1. I have mksysb of the system from which I can restore the system but problem is my few application mount point was a part of rootvg and while taking the mksysb we have a practice to exclude those mount points.2. Now I know I can easily restore the system from mksysb but what about those mount points how can I restore them.3. what I thought is I have a spare disk so I will restore the mksysb on that and then attach these disk of rootvg having those application filesystem and restore them.4. but I am not sure about exact things need to be done.Please provide your viewThanks

startup

startup(7)						 Miscellaneous Information Manual						startup(7)

NAME

       startup - event signalling system startup

SYNOPSIS

       startup [ENV]...

DESCRIPTION

       The  startup event is generated by the Upstart init(8) daemon after it has completed its own initialisation and is the signal that the rest
       of the system may be started.

       Typically this will involve checking and mounting the partitions and drives that form the filesystem, loading drivers for connected devices
       and starting the X windowing system or other login environment.

       In the default Upstart configuration, the primary task run on the startup event is the /etc/init/rc-sysinit.conf job responsible for gener-
       ating the System V compatible runlevel(7) event.  See that page for a more detailed explanation of this process.

       Paradoxically there is currently no corresponding Upstart-native event signifying that the system is to be shutdown, only the System V com-
       patible runlevel 0 and runlevel 6 events provide this functionality.

EXAMPLE

       A service with no other dependencies run on startup might use:

	      start on startup

SEE ALSO

       runlevel(7) init(8)

Upstart 							    2009-07-09								startup(7)
