4. When the tape drive location has been verified, enter the
following command:
ufsrestore tvf /dev/rmt/xbn
where x is either 0 or 1, depending on the value that you
used in step 3. After a few seconds, the system starts
displaying the contents of the tape cassette.
To stop the scrolling display, press CTRL-c. When
prompted to discontinue the display, enter y.
Before starting the recovery procedure, ensure that the
following has been done:
• The tape drive must be connected and powered on.
• The tape cassette to which the system was backed up
must be inserted. If there are multiple tapes, tape 1 must
be inserted first. The system prompts you to insert each
subsequent cassette when it is required.
• The system must be powered on with the controller
screen displaying the ok prompt. (To display this prompt,
press StopA.)
IMPORTANT: Insertion of the tape cartridges in the
correct sequence is essential to successful recovery.
When the system requests additional tape cartridges, be
sure to insert the tapes in the correct sequence (for
example, Vol #1, Vol #2, etc.). If the tapes are inserted in
the wrong order during the recovery process, the
restoration will fail.
1. Insert the appropriate Solaris CD for the controller and
DocuSP software version that is being restored (Solaris
2.6 for DocuSP 2.X, Solaris 8 for DocuSP 3.X, etc.)
NOTE: Systems equipped with Tandberg Data tape drives
must be booted with Solaris 8 CDs, regardless of the
version of DocuSP being restored. The Solaris 2.6 CD
does not properly recognize these drives and causes an
unrecoverable read error during the recovery operation.
2. Write-enable the DSPERU diskette (tab window closed)
then insert the DSPERU diskette into the floppy drive.
3. From the Ok prompt, enter boot cdrom -sr to boot the
system from CDROM into single-user mode. It may take
up to five minutes to boot.
