H70 mksysb F50
|
|
|
All,
I'm not sure if this will work, but can I use a mksysb of an H70 and
restore to a F50 server?
The H70 has 4.3.3 in it and I need to restore it to F50. Thanks for
your advice

mksysb with different model server?

Check that the H70 has the driver installed which are used on a F50 -
mostly the scsi device driver and verfiy the type of the running kernel
because afaik a up-kernel can not run on a mp-machine.
And if possible just make a test.
Otherwise read ( The section posted should fit to aix 4.3.3 as well )

.....
Use this how-to when installing a system backup tape to a different
system.
In this scenario, you will do the following:
1. Boot the system with the AIX Volume 1 CD in the CD-ROM drive and
the system backup tape in the tape device.
2. Select Start Maintenance Mode for System Recovery.
3. Select Install from a System Backup.
4. Select the drive containing the backup tape, and press Enter.
The system reads the media and begins the installation.
You are then prompted for the BOS installation language, and the
Welcome screen displays. Continue with the Prompted Installation,
because cloning is not supported in nonprompted installations.
If you are cloning from the product CD to restore a backup tape, do not
remove the CD from the CD-ROM drive.
After the mksysb installation completes, the installation program
automatically installs additional devices and the kernel (uniprocessor
or microprocessor) on your system, using the original product media you
booted from. Information is saved in BOS installation log files. To
view BOS installation log files, type cd /var/adm/ras and view the
devinst.log file in this directory.
If the source system does not have the correct passwords and network
information, you can make modifications on the target system now. Also,
some products (such as graPHIGS) ship device-specific files. If your
graphics adapter is different on the target system, verify that the
device-specific filesets for graphics-related LPPs are installed.
