7.Use the manage_index command to update the configuration clause name and description, and to change the directory to the archive's configuration files.

Rename the configuration clause:

#manage_index -m 'yyyy-mm-dd,hh:mmRecovery Archive' \ -c 'Your configuration name' \

-i /var/opt/ignite/clients/client/CINDEX

Update the configuration clause description:

#manage_index -y 'Your configuration description' \ -c 'Your configuration name' \

-i /var/opt/ignite/clients/client/CINDEX

Update the archive's configuration files to the new directory.

Use manage_index to get a list of all the files associated with the cfg clause.

#manage_index -w -c 'Your configuration name'\ -i /var/opt/ignite/clients/client/CINDEX

For each configuration file to rename, remove the references to the old directory. This example renames archive_cfg. The other two configuration files to move are control_cfg and system_cfg.

#manage_index -t-c 'Your configuration name' \ -frecovery/yyyy-mm-dd,hh:mm/archive_cfg \ -i /var/opt/ignite/clients/client/CINDEX

For each configuration file to rename, add the references to the new directory:

#manage_index -a -c 'Your configuration name' \ -f recovery/Recovery_Archive.sav/archive_cfg \ -i /var/opt/ignite/clients/client/CINDEX

Making recovery configuration file additions

Using the recovery config.local file

To have a configuration file automatically added to all new recovery configuration clauses for a given client, create a new Ignite-UX configuration file called:

/var/opt/ignite/clients/client/recovery/config.local

For local tapes the file is located in:

/var/opt/ignite/recovery/config.local

This config.local file will automatically be included in your recovery configuration for this client each time you run make_net_recovery. (The make_net_recovery command is run for you when you create a recovery image using the Ignite-UX TUI or GUI.)

If you already have recovery configurations for this client and would like them to include the recovery config.local file, use the manage_index command to include a reference to recovery/config.local in all of the configuration clauses.

The following example adds the recovery config.local file to all the 11i v2 cfg clauses in the CINDEX file.

#manage_index -a -r B.11.23 -f recovery/config.local \ -i /var/opt/ignite/clients/client/CINDEX

For more information, see manage_index(1M).

Adding a depot

If you want to install a recovery image on a different hardware platform or HP-UX Virtual Partitions (vPars) software, you might have to add software to the recovery configuration in the CINDEX file.

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.
