Reloading Your System Configuration

1. Install your latest system load backup.

2. Start the system. Only the system master volume on LDEV 1 is initialized. Other volumes must be initialized using VOLUTIL. This can be done with the following set of commands:

   
      :VOLUTIL
      volutil: NEWVOL volumesetname:membername LDEV=nn
   
   

   The volumesetname for the system volume set is MPEXL_SYSTEM_VOLUME_SET. Issue the NEWVOL command for each member of the volume set. None of the drives can be written to until they have been initialized. Refer to System Startup, Configuration, and Shutdown Reference Manual for more detailed instructions.

3. Make any changes to the SYSGEN configuration and reboot the system. (This step is optional.)

4. Restore your partial and full backups using the KEEP and DIRECTORY parameters of the RESTORE command. These procedures are described in the following sections.
