We have a similar DR process as you and I have a script that I use to create a kickstart file for each server automatically along with saving specific configuration files and so on. That together with the install DVD, I can build the OS. We then restore the application partitions (mostly Oracle apps or DB's) and that's it.
We will be playing with BMR in Netbackup when we upgrade to 6.5.2 in a few months. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, July 01, 2008 11:15 AM To: veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu Subject: [Veritas-bu] Linux With regard to backup and recovery: How are you recovering Linux Redhat OS on Wintel server? We test DR at SunGard and have no experience recovering Linux OS? Is there an equivalent of a mksysb in Linux? Want to recover the OS first and separately then recover the data using Netbackup - currently running 6.0 MP5.
