UFSBACKUP/UFSRESTORE - Solaris 2.4
1998-09-15 09:23:50
Hello,
I want to exchange the root drive of my Solaris 2.4 server with a larger
drive so that I can upgrade to Solaris 2.6. I called SUN and they told me
about their UFSBACKUP/UFSRESTORE program which backs up the boot
information. You need to backup the boot information, install the new
drive, and boot from the CD. I would need to restore the boot information
at this point. Hmm. How do I get access to the ADSM server to get the
boot information if I do not have a root drive and booted from the OS from
the CD? Do I need a floppy with the software on it? I am not sure I would
have network access at that point. Well, my question is whether ADSM has
the ability to get me through a boot drive transfer for me? What steps
would I take before doing this task, and how would I do the restore using
ADSM?
