First time doing this. What is the process? We have a vendor that takes backups of our databases and directories offsite to a windows box cifs mounted, but we dont actually make mksysb tapes. Is this the first step, to make mksysb backup? So can someone please tell me the easiest way to test a disaster recovery on a test box?
are you trying to backup/clone the entire system?
if so...
(make sure you have a lot of disk space free..)
make a tmp folder, like /tmp/NycUnxer
What do these flags do?
-i bos.data image
-p software packing
-e exclude directories in /etc/exclude.rootvg
This will create a mksysb backup of your system and put it into one big file,
now, what I like to do is to covert this big file into DVD sized files
What do these flags do?
-m tell where is the mksysb generated
-S do not try to burn directly to the dvd drive, instead stop and let the iso in a dir
-I dir where the iso file is created
-L indicate that you want dvd images. Without, it creates cd images.
Then you can burn them to DVD with your favorite dvd burning software. (If you move them over to a Windows system to burn, you will need to rename the extention to iso... for ex. cd_image_41397.vol1 to cd_image_41397.vol1.iso)
