Functions of the System Management Console
Procedure
1. In the partition which is to carry out the data backup the Solaris operating system is now
started via the network from the system console:
{0} ok boot <LAN controller> -s
Here <LAN controller> is the alias name of the system console LAN controller. The
alias names can be checked in OBP using devalias.
As of the SX140 model series the alias names net and obp-net can be used by
default. As default on SX130 servers these alias names are net<x>, where <x> is the
number of the system board whose onboard LAN interface is connected to the admin-
istration LAN. For SX130 servers this is 0, 2, 4 and 6 consecutively from the left.
2. Activate the network:
# /etc/init.d/inetinit start
3. Start the RPC service:
# /etc/init.d/rpc start
4. Activate the network interface:
# /etc/init.d/inetsvc start
5. Use the command fsck to check the integrity of the file system for which the data
backup is carried out.
Example: for segment c0t0d0s1:
#fsck -m /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0s1
6. Confirm the name of the remote tape device. The default name is /dev/rmt/0.
7. Insert the write-enabled tape into the tape device.
8. Mount the file system to be backed up temporarily:
Example: # mount -F ufs /dev/dsk/c0t0d0s1 /mnt
9. Create a backup copy of the file system with the command ufsdump.
Insert a new tape in the drive when the relevant prompt appears.
Example
When using the Secure Shell, the data backup must be carried out with an appropriate
combination of the commands ufsdump, ssh and dd.
