Bootable restores? Are they supported via Veritas? If so, how do you make
one?

By this I mean, can I do a backup of an entire boot partition and then
restore it
after a hard crash for Disaster Recovery by booting via some means (like CD)
that
has the added Veritas stuff (bpcd and bprd in /etc/services, /etc/inetd.conf
|
etc/xinetd.d/bpcd, /usr/openv/*) and do the recovery to a disk mounted in a
secondary location, like /mnt? How would one do this, and what is necessary?

You don't mention a platform, but on HP-UX you can use Ignite make_recovery
or make_tape_recovery. I have not heard of such a thing from Veritas, but
perhaps someone else knows for sure.
