Hi Everyone,

I just wanted to get people's thoughts on something. Running a Power 6 550
system with five partitions and HMC version 7R340. I've just done a Save
Upgrade Data and a HMC Data backup. My question relates to the size of the
Data backup, nearly 4.6GB across two files. This is almost as big as the
recovery media I downloaded from IBM.

The Save HMC Data does not save the base HMC code and Linux OS does it?
You still need the recovery media PLUS HMC Upgrade backup PLUS HMC Data
backup to completely recover a HMC don't you? The Info Center seems to
suggest the base HMC system is not included in the HMC Data backup (
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/powersys/v3r1m5/index.jsp).

It's just that 4.6GB seems a lot for five partitions and a hand full of
users. Could this be mostly log files? If so, any ideas on how we can
clean these up?


Thanks
