Backup and Restore Operations

For domain backup and restore operations, refer to your backup software documentation for instructions. The Solaris OS documentation collection also contains information on backup and restore operations.

Dynamic Reconfiguration

Dynamic reconfiguration allows you to add or remove PSBs from system domains without stopping the Solaris OS. You can use dynamic reconfiguration to redistribute your system resources by adding or removing system boards as needed or to replace failed system boards with new ones. For more information, refer to the Dynamic Reconfiguration User’s Guide and to the Service Manual.
