Backup & Restore AIX 5.2

Asked by testtest25 in IBM AIX Unix

Tags: aix, restore, backup, mksysb

We are currently building a disaster recovery plan for our AIX 5.2 systems.

What is the best way to back up the system to tape?

Right now we are doing nightly mksysb backups M-F and a seperate nightly job that backs up user volumes.

Commands we are currently using:

For the rootvg
/usr/bin/mksysb -m -X -p /dev/rmt0

For other vg
savevg -f /dev/rmt0 othervg

I am relatively new to AIX and Unix, so any additional explaination provided is greatly appreciated.Start Free Trial
