I see a problem here: when we say "the system is down" it means it's *down*, not running. You're using to mean "some service(s) are down while we do backups". For example, you might say "the d/b system is down while we do backups"... but you can't do anything with a brick, sitting there, which is what a server is when it's down. Please explain what you mean by "not to boot back up". mark -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
