While waiting, I discovered the answer myself. This requires HP patch
PHSS_2740.

{ sorry if this message is duplicated. I was having some email problems

Hello --

When running either make_recovery or make_tape_recovery under HP-UX
11.00, I
get the following error message:

      ***************************************
       HP-UX System Recovery
       Going to create the tape.
make_recovery(466): Call to /opt/ignite/bin/make_medialif failed.
       Check the /var/opt/ignite/logs/makrec.log1 file.
        Cleanup

/var/opt/ignire/logs/makrec.log1 ( included below ) reports "probable
insufficient space" on /var/tmp. /var has 4.3 GB available.

Any ideas? Thanks, and I will summarize to the list, of course.
