 Question #3 - Alternate kernel / boot solution Hi. In my company developers and QA personnel crush the AIX (4.3.3) quite a lot. I have to rescue-boot from the CD, and recover their disaster. I would like a suggestion (as I've seen bosboot, and mksysb, and read their documentation), but assuming I wish to add an alternate bootable partition on my AIX, one to which I can call at anytime, with a minimal / and /usr (and /var, etc...) without assigning it to a different VG (one option is adding it to the already existing rootvg), or without forcing a new vg to be called rootvg, while retaining the existing rootvg (aka, different vg, but with different name). It will allow me fast boot when they crush the kernel, and kill (yet again) /etc/inittab (which they do quite a lot...). TIA! Etzion.      |

| Re: Question #3 - Alternate kernel / boot solution look up alt_disk_install command in the docs. you can clone the current system to another disk or install from mksysb etc.. all when the system is up and running Mark -- Posted via http://dbforums.com |
