Wrench Rescue "LiveCD" for UNIX (as opposed to Linux)
Background is I am attempting to recover/rescue an HP DL380 G5 which is running SCO Unixware 7.11. It has 3 partitions in a RAID 5 Configuration and is unable to boot with a Stage 3 boot load error.
..
Client has no emergency rescue disk. System is old and redundant except they suddenly need some data off it. After which it will be trashed.
..
So naturally I am seeking a solution to the situation.
When scouring the net I came across sysresccd.org
I found it interesting that for every version of Linux there seems to be a LiveCD which can be used to recover a broken system.
However with the Unix variant the response is "The Emergency boot Cd is specific to an installation."
I just wondered:
  • If true, why this is the case?
  • Has anyone out there tried/succeeded to create a generic (or variant specific) Unix Live/Rescue CD?
  • If one could boot a SCO/Unixware Unix system from a Linux

Commands on Digital Unix equivalent to for "top" and "sar" on other Unix flavour

Hi, We have a DEC Alpha 4100 Server with OSF1 Digital Unix 4.0. Can any one tell me, if there are any commands on this Unix which are equivalent to "top" and "sar" on HP-UX or Sun Solaris ? I am particularly interested in knowing the CPU Load, what process is running on which CPU, etc. ... (1 Reply)

NAME

       systemd-efi-boot-generator - Generator for automatically mounting the EFI System Partition used by the current boot to /boot

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/lib/systemd/system-generators/systemd-efi-boot-generator

DESCRIPTION

       systemd-efi-boot-generator is a generator that automatically creates mount and automount units for the EFI System Partition (ESP), mounting
       it to /boot. Note that this generator will execute no operation on non-EFI systems, on systems where the boot loader does not communicate
       the used ESP to the OS, on systems where /boot is an explicitly configured mount (for example, listed in fstab(5)) or where the /boot mount
       point is non-empty. Since this generator creates an automount unit, the mount will only be activated on-demand, when accessed.

       systemd-efi-boot-generator implements the generator specification[1].
