Occasionally, an entire system may need to be restored because of a system failure. For example, if there is a processor or OS (operating system) failure. This topic includes prerequisites for restoring MIMIX software within a MIMIX system pair (two systems using the same MIMIX installation) to one system from a save of the other system. A system restore may need to be performed when the when the following conditions exist:
-
The original production system, including the Licensed Internal Code and the OS, has been recovered from the backup system by tape.
-
The IBM installed release level is the same on each system.
IMPORTANT! To ensure the integrity of your data, contact your Certified MIMIX Consultant for assistance performing a system restore.
For information about MIMIX-supported environments, see the Supported Environments Matrix in the Technical Documents section of Support.
