SUN's equivalent to AIX's 'mksysb' is: ufsdump (backup OS) and ufsrestore (restore filesystems). Sorry, I don't have sample scripts, however, you can go to SUN's website, www.sun.com, and do a search of ufsdump to get the online command reference.
PS. It's free.

I think you can by it at Sun. Regards, Wouter Verschaeve Unix Sys.

The problem is that our Unix team wants to backup a running Sun OS and then later on restore this backed up OS backup and boot the machine from there, which of course did not work. I know AIX has the make sysb solution for this, does anybody know of a solution for SUN. TSM version 4.2.1.9 on AIX 4.3.3 Thanks Andrea Mac Murray Sen.
