The statement I received from someone at Veritas was:
"VERITAS supports the 'bare metal' restore of most operating systems yet
TRU64 is not one of them."
Unfortunately I was unable to have that statement verified by someone else
in Veritas.
Hence we implemented a vdump backup of our cluster operating system such
that we could always restore the operating system if required.
I was directed towards the TRU64 unix doco. for help on restoring a cluster.
Regards,
Mark.
