hello gurus,

I am trying to restore system backups of some of the nodes in our system. 2 of the nodes successfully restored but one node, node7 does not continue. It asks for "Press 1 and enter to perform English install". Why is it like that?

the commands I use for all 3 nodes

spchvgobj -r rootvg -p PSSP-3.2 -v aix433 -i node7.mksysb -c 2 -l 7
spbootins -s no -r install -l 7
splstdata –G -b
setup_server 2>&1 | tee /tmp/setup_server.out
syspar_ctrl –r –G
Efence -G 7
cshutdown -F -N 7
nodecond 1 7 &
s1term 1 7

Please help me on this as it is very urgent...

thank you.

Hi,
check that no problem with hdisk0 onto node 7.
Regards Boris
 
Does setup_server complete successfully? What is the content of setup_server.out? What is the output of splstdata -b?
 
there was a discrepancy in the address of the second hard disk (hdisk0 10-68-00-0,0 hdisk1 10-68-00-1,0), as i intend to install it with mirroring, defined in the SDR. The system cannot see a device in that address, so when changed it using

spchvgobj -h 10-68-00-0,0:10-68-00-2,0

the installation went successfully.

thank you Boris and screwloose.
