Are there any files I should NOT restore when performing a "full system" restore of Redhat Enterprise 3 (Update 6)? For example, under HPUX after doing a fresh system install, I'd exclude the following "seven deadly files" when restoring over top of the running OS: /etc/lvmtab /etc/fstab /etc/mnttab /etc/lvmconf/ /dev/ /etc/ioconfig/ /stand/ioconfig/ The obvious equivalents under RHEL for lvmtab and lvmconf are /etc/lvmtab, /etc/lvmconf, and /etc/lvmtab.d. The obvious equivalents for /etc/fstab and /etc/mnttab are /etc/fstab and /etc/mtab. The obvious equivalent for /dev is /dev. Is there an equivalent for /etc/ioconfig and /stand/ioconfig? Are there other files I should NOT restore? Anything under /boot, perhaps? -- Trever -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
