In real Disaster Recovery, there's nothing to do after reload of your system in your backup center. The problem is only to set up the correct network.
If you want to clone your system in an another LPAR and get the two partitions online at the same time, this is what i do: I've got two partition PROD and TEST PROD system's is on a 3390-3 at 031E TEST system's is on a 3390-3 at 031F PROD parmfile's is dasd=031E,031F etc... dasda is 031E dasdb is 031F - I do an OS/390 offlindr restore from backup of 031E to 031F >From Linux PROD: - a mount of dasdb (031F) to /mnt/backup - vi of /mnt/backup/boot/parmfile and set new value: dasd=031F instead of dasd=031E,031F - silo for establish the new ipltext to /dev/dasdb - vi of /mnt/backup/etc/rc.config to set new value like ipaddres, hostname... - vi of /mnt/backup/etc/modules.conf to set new value like device address to lcs, ctc... - IPL from Linux TEST at 031F. ----- Original Message ----- From: "SAMY rengasamy" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, December 06, 2001 6:10 PM Subject: Re: Backup and Restore for Disaster Recovery > Can you explain how exactly to go about this, Please.
