Re: How to back up HMC to disk on IBM i lpar

We have setup HMC ssh communication from a partition and setup a NFS share.
then run ssh command to the hmc using the "bkconsdata" command.

we backup 15+ hmc's this way. just a job started from the job scheduler.

we keep the last 5 backups.

With what frew do you make backups? If the config doesnt change i dont
see a reason to backup the HMC. Also, i found that using a disk
imaging software is a better way to backup since it shortens the
restore time. Then again i'm way low on the tech scale (power5+) so
maybe there are things that i'm not aware of...
