mksysb on remote server

[schleife]

i have an SP with 4 nodes. A 3570-Megstar Tape-Libary is attached to node 4. Is there
a possibility to make an mksysb or savevg of node 1,2,3 directly to the tape, wich is under control of ADSM?

Thanks

schleife,

ADSM will not support the restoration of a mksysb via a network. In short in order to recover a system i.e. from scratch you will need either a locally attached tape drive that can accept tctl commands or a NIM environment with a backup area on the CWS this can then be used to rbackup/ebuild nodes at will.

Hope that helps

Cheers
