Hi guys,
I'm an IT student from France, I'm not very fluent in english.

I have do make an virtual bootable system backup disk.
mkcd to /dev/cd1, the cd1 is served by the VIOS with a virtual blank disk

I've all ready create the virtual cd drive with mkvdev -fbo
I can see my drive with my LPAR

INSTALLED RESOURCE LIST

* cd1 U9111.520.659282E-V3-C2-T1-L8300000000000000 Virtual SCSI Optical Served by VIO Server

My steps are :
on the VIOS :
mkvopt -name blankcd1 -size 4.7G to create a blank CD

loadopt -vtd -BackupDrive -disk blankcd1 to load the cd into the drive

I checked with lsrep

Name File Size Optical Access
blankcd1 4096 BackupDrive rw

then, when i type this command :
mkdvd -e -i /home/tharsan/tp_script/image.data -d /dev/cd1

I have this error :
0512-332 burn_cd: Device /dev/cd1 does not appear to be ready.

And when i try to mount my cd, I have this error message :

Can you help me please ?

NAME

       vxconfigbackup - back up disk group configuration

SYNOPSIS

       /etc/vx/bin/vxconfigbackup [-l directory] [[dgname ...] | [dgid ...]]

DESCRIPTION

       The  vxconfigbackup  utility  can  be  used to backup up the configuration information for one or more disk groups.  The disk groups may be
       specified either by name or by ID.  If no disk groups are specified, all disk group configurations are backed up.

OPTIONS

       -l directory
		 Specifies a directory other than the default where the backup configuration files are to be written.

		 Note: The default backup directory is /etc/vx/cbr/bk.

EXAMPLES

       Back up the configuration of the mydg disk group to the directory /dgbackup/mydg:

		 vxconfigbackup -l /dgbackup/mydg mydg

FILES

       /etc/vx/cbr/bk/dgname.dgid/dgid.dginfo
		 Default location of backup file for disk group information.

       /etc/vx/cbr/bk/dgname.dgid/dgid.diskinfo
		 Default location of backup file for disk attributes.

       /etc/vx/cbr/bk/dgname.dgid/dgid.binconfig
		 Default location of backup file for binary configuration copy.

       /etc/vx/cbr/bk/dgname.dgid/dgid.cfgrec
		 Default location of backup file for configuration records in vxprint -m format.

NOTES

       The vxconfigbackupd daemon automatically backs up a disk group's new configuration to the default backup directory whenever the	configura-
       tion is changed.  The vxconfigbackup command is provided to back up the configuration manually at any other desired time.

       The  disk  group  configuration	backup and restore utilities do not save any data in the public region. This includes file system or other
       application data that is configured within VxVM objects.
