I am struggling to confirm what backup's are required to backup an entire cluster so it maybe restored from bare metal.
My environment wil be 2 Node cluster with 5-10 SVM (LDAP / AD) user data backed up direct to tape via NDMP.
Is there a KB on this ?
No snapmirroring currrently to remotes sites. This is a standalone cluster.
My aim is to do a bare metal restore test restoring all the configuraiton minus the user data which can be restored via NDMP after.
I know I can use 'system configuration backup' to a remote ftp or HTTP host but is that enough ? I suspect it may not be.
For example does system configuration backup contain:
- Aggr, Vol + Qtree data structures
- SVM information such as junctions, assigned volumes and configuration with regard to AD and LDAP.
Do I need to do:
- system configuration backup
+
- Backup SVM root volumes (These are LS mirrored as per good practices)
+
????
