Put a PA-RISC HP-UX 11i v2 golden archive on a DVD
On a system with a DVD writer, execute the following commands. (The iso_directory is the target directory for the .iso media file. The -roption specifies the release, such as B.11.11, B.11.23, or B.11.31. The -ooption specifies the hardware architecture — valid choices on a PA-RISC system are: 32, 64v, or 64w.)
#mkdir /var/opt/ignite/media/pseudo_root/archive
#cp goldenarchive.gz /var/opt/ignite/media/pseudo_root/archive
#make_media_install -r B.11.23 -o 64w -a goldenarchive.gz -m iso_directory
Put two HP-UX 11i v2 golden archives, one Itanium-based and one PA-RISC, on a DVD
The Itanium-based golden archive can only be installed on another Itanium-based system. Similarly, the PA-RISC golden archive can only be installed on another PA-RISC system. The DVD will be able to boot either type of architecture.
On a system with a DVD writer, execute the following commands. (The file suffixes .pa.gz and
.ia.gz replace the make_media_install -ooption. The iso_directory is the target directory for the .iso media file. The -roption specifies the release, such as B.11.23, or B.11.31.)
#mkdir /var/opt/ignite/media/pseudo_root/archive
#cp PAgoldenarchive.pa.gz /var/opt/ignite/media/pseudo_root/archive
#cp IAgoldenarchive.ia.gz /var/opt/ignite/media/pseudo_root/archive
#make_media_install -r B.11.23 -a PAgoldenarchive.pa.gz \ -a IAgoldenarchive.ia.gz -m iso_directory
Create a recovery DVD
Create a recovery image of the current system on the named Ignite-UX server, and write that recovery image to the DVD writer on the server system by issuing the following command on the client system.
#make_opticaldisc_recovery Ignite_server_name
Create an HP-UX 11i v2 Itanium-based recovery DVD using an existing network recovery image
Run the following command from the Ignite-UX server on which the recovery image exists. (The -roption specifies the HP-UX release, and the -ooption specifies the hardware architecture.)
#make_media_install -r B.11.23 -o IA \
-f /var/opt/ignite/clients/client/recovery/archive/archive_cfg \ -f /var/opt/ignite/clients/client/recovery/archive/control_cfg \ -f /var/opt/ignite/clients/client/recovery/archive/system_cfg \ -a archive.gz \
-p /var/opt/ignite/recovery/archives/client\ -m /var/tmp
Error messages
No DVD available
The make_media_install script will automatically write the .iso image (default file name is image.iso) to the DVD. If there is no writable DVD available, the script will halt with a message similar to
:-[ LOAD TRAY failed with SK=5h/ASC=24h/ACQ=00h]: I/O error
The .iso file will remain in the iso_directory specified with the -moption. Make sure you have enough disk space in the iso_directory to hold the .iso image.
