[comp.sys.hp] Recovery of a 9000/800 system after a disk-crash

hm@hcshh.UUCP (Hellmuth Michaelis) (12/08/90)

A week ago we had a disk-crash on our 9000/825. We were in the lucky
situation of having just made a fullbackup using fbackup, but when trying
to restore the system, i recognized the missing of a minimal HP-UX like
the one we made on our 300-system with the 'mkrs'-script.

On the HP-PA support tape the frestore was missing, so we completly re-
installed the operating system until we were able to use frestore to 
restore our backup-tapes. 

Then we read through all the documentation of the 800, but we did'nt
found any hints like the one provided with the 300 ("Disaster Recovery").

So, 1. is there an easier method after such a crash to restore my backups
and 2. where can i find information/documentation on this subject. 

Any pointers are very welcome !

Thanks, Hellmuth
