Hello,

sorry for the late feedback.

Unfortunately, even with the "|" separator, mondo still ignores the FS
exclusion.

Regards,

A MIRACLE..!!  - I think it actually worked....  
it asked a couple of time for CD 2 but it finally continued. Biggest hurtle
was to install GRUB 
(still having trouble finding this) Please use log files to work on small
bug and errors...  
let us know if there's an update...

Hello,

I recently installed and ran "mondoarchive" on my Scientific Linux 6.4
headless server to create ISO backups of the machine.

To test those images, I tried to boot into them via a VirtualBox 4.3
virtual machine and tried both the nuke and interactive options. In
both cases, lots of text quickly scrolled by and stopped with a "sh:
can't access tty: job control turned off" error. See attached
screenshot.

I wanted to get the log file, but I was unable to mount neither a
virtual hard disk nor a floppy because the mount command doesn't seem
to recognise the ext3 filesystem???

The only thing that appears relevant from a web search appears to be this:
http://trac.mondorescue.org/ticket/424
But it is a closed bug ticket....

Is there anything I can do to try to troubleshoot this problem? Thanks!!

It is new hardware. We found that it also replaced /etc/resolv.conf

thanks for the information Stefan

Hi John,

>> I'm thinking, as the Redhat IP configuration file contains the MAC address and this won't match on the new server, Redhat will replace the config file with it's default "empty" config file?
Are you restoring on the same server or on a new server? 
If on a new server then the MAC address wil have changed and kudzu will do its job and replace the network config files.

The versions look good:
mondo-3.0.4-1.rhel5
mindi-2.1.7-1.rhel5
mindi-busybox-1.18.5-3.rhel5
buffer-1.19-4.rhel5
afio-2.5-1.rhel5

I'm thinking, as the Redhat IP configuration file contains the MAC address and this won't match on the new server, Redhat will replace the config file with it's default "empty" config file?

I restored the ifcfg-eth0 from the .iso and it did contain the correct IP info from the originating server

Thanks,
John

Subject: [Mondo-devel] Mondo restore for Redhat version 5 server

Hi,

First of all, this is a great product, it is simple to use and it WORKS. Thanks

Question:
I've "nuke" restored a redhat 5 server and the only issue that I've seen so far is the IP configuration did not recover.

It appears the ifcfg-ethX files were reset to their defaults somewhere along the restore or startup

In /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts:
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root   194 Oct 23 16:46 ifcfg-eth0
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root   208 Oct 23 16:51 ifcfg-eth1
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root   194 Oct 23 16:52 ifcfg-eth2

Am I missing something or is this the way it is supposed to work?
Blame it on Redhat?

Thanks,
John

Thanks for the prompt answer!

The problem is that the system is a bit old and don't support boot from
USB, for example.

Aditionally, it's a server with a RAID 5 array acting as local disk, so not
possible to pull out and stick into another system.

But the suggestion about a live system is promissing. ;-)

Many thanks!

Atenciosamente,
Alexandre W. Agostini

Actually ... got a 64GB SD card / reader? Throw the ISO's on that and ...

External hard drive? An internal hard drive you can throw in for a short 
time?

8GB SD Card, throw an image on, read it, remove and put the next image 
on ...

The problem won't be the iso files, it's getting to them, and the 
command / invocation / what to put on input lines.

Over the net, direct from disc, direct from filesystem, will all be the 
same to mondo. Just a matter of access and pointing.

e.g. When I ran my tests, I didn't actually write any discs, just 
pointed mono at the network location to which they were originally written.

If there's an issue with the command lines / limited interface of mondo, 
boot a live cd, then call mondo from within that.

For that matter - you just need to get the data onto the hard drive. Can 
you pull the drive out of there and put it into another system with a 
dvd long enough to do the restore?

GL&HF

I'll guess not. But I'm no expert, and it sounds like you need an answer 
now.

It would have to dynamically readjust file lists, re-burn CD's, and it's 
just nasty. (To me, the non-expert.)

There is no way to throw a dvd drive in from another box temporarily?

No way to put a dvd drive into a usb enclosure, or acquire a usb dvd drive?

I believe you can on the fly specify a different source for the files 
(over the network). You should be able to mount those iso's on a 
different computer, and call upon them from the system being rescued.

I have no idea of the specific steps or invocation lines, but I know it 
to be doable. [It'd just be faster / easier to throw a dvd drive in 
temporarily, or permanently. I get if it's a rack mount or other special 
beastie, that's not possible - but having a usb dvd drive to hand may 
prove to be prudent, going forward.]

I wish you the very best of luck - I know such situations are trying.

Hi people!

I need to know if there's a way to take a set of DVD sized images created
by mondoarchive and rebuild them as an equivalent set of CDs.

I make a backup using mondo of a system that I've always thought as having
a DVD drive. It was only now that the machine crashed that I found it has
only a (rather old) CD drive.

So I simply can't use the "automagic" process of boot -> nuke -> happy end.
;-)

If I just mount the ISO's (there's 3) is there a way of rebuild a set of
bootable CDs that monorestore will accept as of being an originally
generated archive?

The 3 sites mentioned on http://www.mondorescue.org/downloads.shtml seem
to work just fine at the moment.

Managed to solve this myself.

In case anyone is interested I performed the following:

Not the most desirable fix but I ended up downgrading mindi and
mindi-busybox to the following versions:



mindi-2.1.3-1.rhel4.x86_64
mindi-busybox-1.18.5-1.rhel4.x86_64


Backup and restore now works as expected.

Cheers.

Hi,

Just FWIW, I sent in a report of Mindi creating unbootable ISOs a couple
of weeks ago. I'm running:

[pclark@c3po ~]$ rpm -qa | grep mondo
mondo-3.0.4-1.fc18.x86_64
[pclark@c3po ~]$ rpm -qa | grep mindi
mindi-2.1.7-1.fc18.x86_64
mindi-busybox-1.18.5-3.fc18.x86_64
[pclark@c3po ~]$

For me the only difference from previous versions is that it finds kernels
without manual entry, it still panics with "cant find init".

Also I found out that Mondorestore is trying to mount root as an ext2 file system.  It should be ext4:

This is from /etc/fstab:

/dev/vg00/rootvol       /                       ext4    defaults        1 1

Subject: Getting kernel panic

Got the following error messages while doing a Mondorestore:


RAMDISK: Compressed image found at block 0

VFS: mounted root (ext2 filesystem).

Freeing unused kernel memory: 224 freed

Write protecting the kernel read-only data: 533K

/bin/sh: RESTORE: No such file or directory

Kernel panic - not syncing: attempted to kill init

I have attached the appropriate log files from the front end of the Mondorestore procedure.  I tried using nuke mode for this on RHEL 5.9 and 6.4.  Got a different kernel panic message for each (the one above is for rhel 6.4).

I am in the middle of a DR rehearsal.  In FAST response would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,

I advise you to try the last versions :

mondo 3.0.4-1
mindi 2.1.7-1
mindi-busybox 1.18.5-3

You can ftp it from ftp://ftp.mondorescue.org

Rgds,
Victor

Subject: [Mondo-devel] Booting problem with the Mondo ISO Error message is (kernel panic – not syncing : VFS : Unable to mount root fs on 01:00)



Hi Mondo Team,

    I have mondo rpm installed on our linux server environment to take their
OS backup and getting the below error when i am trying booting the server
with the Mondo iso image.

Error message when trying to boot.

" Kernel panic: VFS : unable to mount root fs on 01:00"

Below is the detail of the Os version and mondo,mindi rpm version detail.

[root@linux root]# cat /etc/redhat-release
Red Hat Linux Advanced Server release 2.1AS (Derry)
[root@linux root]#

[root@linux root]# rpm -qa|grep mondo
mondo-2.2.9.4-1.rhel2.1
[root@linux root]# rpm -qa|grep mindi
mindi-2.0.7.5-1.rhel2.1
mindi-busybox-1.7.3-1.rhel2.1
[root@linux root]#


For your information i created the bootable mondo image of the server and
tried to boot the server of same model and getting this error "" Kernel
panic: VFS : unable to mount root fs on 01:00". 


Secondly some one told me that may the drivers are missing so can someone
suggest which are the drivers are missing and if it is not related to the
drivers then what other thing i should do solve the booting problem.




Thanks a lot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

>From what I understand, the sha256 checksum key that the repo is using is not "compatible" (for want of a better word) with redhat release 5

I ended up installing from the available .rpm's instead

Hi,
   I've had this problem since I began using mondoarchive a few years ago. I just had to stop using the -z option. Fortunately, with the testing I've done, it hasn't affected my ability to successfully restore all of the file systems. This issue has always been more of an issue on my RHEL servers, but it will occasionally occur on a SLES server too. 

Bruno has tried to help by suggesting to look at all of my file names and see if I've got anything that is non-standard. I could never find any, so I just chose to eliminate the option when I do my backups. 

Hopes this helps a little.

Alan

if i kill the gzip process mondo continues, not using z is going to cause

version that spits out error logs for gzip with stdout so the error could at
least be viewed
