Hello AIX'ers,
I'm testing my DR. I did a;
#mksysb -i /vol0/.rootvg_backups/ruby/mksysb.file.
To test my backup I did a;
# listvgbackup -f /vol0/.root*/genoa/mksysb.file |grep /etc/hosts
New volume on /vol0/.rootvg_backups/genoa/mksysb.file:
Cluster size is 51200 bytes (100 blocks).
The volume number is 1.
The backup date is: Tue Sep 24 09:26:09 PDT 2002
Files are backed up by name.
The user is xxxxxx.
3275 ./etc/hosts
The number of archived files is 30755.
Then I did a;
#restorevgfiles -f /vol0/.root*/genoa/mksysb.file -d /tmp ./etc/hosts.
This utility scrolled through my mksysb.file file showing all the files.
But it never restored my /etc/hosts to my /tmp directory.
Has anyone been successful in restoring only a file from a mksysb using restorevgfiles?
Thank you!!!
