|
to complete the save operation. Initialize them as standard-labeled tapes
|
||
|
|
and specify the maximum density for the tape unit you are using. The number
|
||
|
|
of tapes that you need depends on the size of the server, the number of objects,
|

|
|
and the capacity of the tape. <p>Each tape should have a volume ID of SAVEDS

and an external label that allows you to easily identify the tape. Ensure

that each of the tapes support the same density.</p>

<li>Ensure that you saved the hardware configuration information from the

server. Use the Save Configuration (SAVCFG) command or the Save System (SAVSYS)
|

command to save the configuration objects. The restore storage procedure uses

the SAVSYS media volume or the SAVCFG media volume to restore the hardware

configuration information.</li>

<li>Print a list of the current network attributes. Type the following and

<p>The server sends messages to the QSYSOPR message

This means that when you enter the command, the server will power down and

perform an automatic IPL. <p>When the IPL occurs, a dedicated service tools

<p>The <em>Percent saved</em> field on the display estimates the

progress of the total amount of saved sectors. However, this estimate does
|

|
|
not accurately predict the time it takes to save or the number of tapes that
|
||
|
|
you need to complete the save operation. The reason is that the server does
|
||
|
|
not save unused sectors.</p>
