AIX Server Cloning

Hi,

Is there disadvantages if we do AIX Serevr cloning to the new AIX server[hardware configuration is same as old server].

Thanks in advance

not really i am doing from very long time

Just watch out for IP adress to do not restore the server with the same IP

Hi,

Are you trying cloning via mksysb or disk clone? either way it will work.

Make changes to bosinst.data "RECOVER_DEVICES = no" then take mksysb without an i option. But don't forget to insert the os cd in the cdrom, it will copy drivers for new hardware form the os cd.
Hope this will help you.

Regards,

VJM
