Hello, please don't laugh, AIX fool here. I do daily full backups and once a week system backups on our RS6000 F50 AIX server and it occurs to me that I don't know what do do in the event of a system crash.
No one in the company has ever done a fresh install!
It was setup 5 years ago and except for the recent OS upgrade we haven't touched it.
I use SMIT to back up to tape
The OS is on a mirrored drive and the data is on a RAID5.
I feel comfortable with the data , due to help I've recieved here!
But don't have a clue about the OS.
We have a software/hardware contract with IBM but I'd like to at least have it on paper what I'm supposed to do.
*But* I need it "dummified" with AIX commands and all that.
Can anyone point me in the right way?
I tried the IBM site for white papers but had very little luck.
Thanks in advance.
