Lisa,
All the filesystems within the rootvg are backed up with a mksysb as long
as they are not explicit excluded from rthe mksysb. In general AIX does not
delete (major) files on reboot as other UNIX's do ( eg /tmp ).
This is how we do the restore of an AIX machine :
1) restore mksysb
2)
minutes is the maximum setting for mountretention. 0 probably means
'never remove tape', although perhaps someone could confirm this..

Is there a limitation for TSM device class to set the mout retention to
minutes? Do we have any option to set the mount retention to be
longer or to disable this function to remain the tape in the tape drive?

Thanks for your reply, Herfried. It brings to mind some other questions
regarding other volume groups. Say you have all your Oracle stuff on one
or two different vgs. Would you need to have done a savevg sometime in
the past to get the vg back, or at bare metal time would you need to

Also, Geoff, remember that the tapes are guaranteed for 10 years-- you
could always put in a call to Tucson and have them extract the data to
another tape for you if rebuilding from copy pools is too onerous.
