Power on/off the SMC
For how to power-on/off the SMC, see the manual supplied with the platform.
9.3
Creating Backups
Creating backup periodically enables easy recovery of data after system faults. This chapter
describes how to create backups, and describes the types of data to backup. SMC uses the DAT
devices for storing backup data.
4
Be sure to create backups periodically. The SMC supports two types of backups. The
backup cycle depends on the method described below:
• Create backup of system volume.
→
After scheduled maintenance or after relocation of SMC.
• Create backup of setup data of System Console Software.
→
After making user registration or/and changing setup information.
9.3.1
Creating Backup of the SMC's System Volume
A backup of the system volume can be created by writing overall data from the installed hard
disks in SMC into DAT data cassettes.
This method is capable of storing all data on the hard disks. It is especially useful when
replacing a faulty disk because all data stored in the data cassettes can be restored to the replaced
disk. This reconfigures the system when the backup is made.
This method writes all data on overall disks into data cassettes. It takes about 2 hours to
complete. All console features are disabled while this backup process. Be sure to prepare
sufficient data cassettes. Checking the capacity of the disks beforehand (data size of backup
data becomes so large that only DDS-3, 125 m (410 ft), data cassette can support) will ensure a
smooth backup.
The following items are required to create backup of the system volume:
l
DAT data cassettes, DDS-3, 125 m (410 ft)
l
The Solaris 7 software CD-ROM disk
Or the SOLARIS 8 SOFTWARE (1 OF 2) CD-ROM disk
If the SynfinityDisk carries out duplicated disk operation, to create a backup, follow the
procedure given in the manual supplied with the SynfinityDisk.
Restoring processes on disk faults or other critical events require recovery of the system to
be only performed by a certified service engineer.
