removed when a new recovery image is created and the specified limit is exceeded. For more information, see make_net_recovery(1M).

You might want to prevent a specific recovery image from being deleted from your system. To do this, you must rename the recovery image and the image directory, and use manage_index to reflect the new names in the CINDEX file.

The following example renames a recovery archive yyyy-mm-dd,hh:mmto Recovery_Archive.sav:

1.Log in to the system where recovery images are stored. This can be a system other then the Ignite-UX server.

2.Rename the recovery archive. (The path to your recovery archive might be different from the example.) The name of the saved recovery archive can be anything unique, but it must be outside the naming convention yyyy-mm-dd,hh:mm.

#cd /var/opt/ignite/recovery/archives/client

#mv yyyy-mm-dd,hh:mmRecovery_Archive.sav

3.If the system where recovery images are stored is different from your Ignite-UX server, log in to the Ignite-UX server.

4.Rename the recovery archive directory.

#cd /var/opt/ignite/clients/client/recovery

#mv yyyy-mm-dd,hh:mmRecovery_Archive.sav

5.If the renamed recovery archive directory is the target of the symbolic link latest, then link latest to the new directory.

#rm latest

#ln -s Recovery_Archive.sav latest

6.Edit the archive_cfg file in the Recovery_Archive.sav directory to reference the new recovery archive name.

Change the archive_path variable inside the (source_type == "NET") clause to the name of the saved recovery image.

(source_type == "NET") { archive_path = "Recovery_Archive.sav"

}else { archive_path = "1"

}

UX System Management Software specifications

HP-UX System Management Software is a robust suite of tools designed to facilitate the administration and management of HP's Unix-based operating system, HP-UX. As organizations increasingly rely on mission-critical applications, the need for a reliable and efficient management solution becomes paramount. HP-UX provides a comprehensive understanding of system performance, resource utilization, and enterprise-wide configuration, all while maintaining high availability and security.

One of the key features of HP-UX System Management Software is its Advanced System Administrator Toolkit. This toolkit includes a wide array of utilities that streamline daily administrative tasks such as monitoring system performance, managing user accounts, and configuring system settings. Tools such as Glance provide real-time monitoring of system resources, enabling administrators to identify bottlenecks and optimize performance.

The software also boasts an advanced security framework, including features such as Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) and Secure Shell (SSH) for secure data transmission. Security patches and updates can be managed through HP’s Service Pack for HP-UX, which provides a streamlined method for maintaining system integrity and compliance with various regulatory standards.

Another notable aspect is the extensive support for virtualization technologies. HP-UX supports HP’s Integrity Virtual Machines (IVMs) and vPars, allowing administrators to create multiple isolated environments on a single physical server. This not only enhances resource utilization but also improves disaster recovery planning by enabling easier backup and restore processes.

For storage management, HP-UX offers tools that enable easy setup and management of Logical Volume Managers (LVM). This allows simplified disk space allocation and management, ensuring that critical applications have the necessary resources without manual intervention.

Furthermore, HP-UX is designed with compatibility in mind, supporting a wide range of third-party applications and frameworks. Integration with management platforms like HP System Insight Manager enhances the ability to monitor and manage systems from a centralized perspective, providing alerts and reports that help in proactive decision-making.

In summary, HP-UX System Management Software delivers a streamlined approach to system administration, focusing on performance, security, and ease of management. Its advanced features, combined with an emphasis on virtualization and storage management, make it a powerful tool for organizations seeking reliability and efficiency in their Unix-based environments. As businesses continue to evolve, tools like HP-UX will remain crucial for ensuring consistent performance and operational excellence.
