According to the doc: "Relax-and-Recover is the leading Open Source bare metal disaster recovery solution. It is a modular framework with many ready-to-go workflows for common situations.
"Relax-and-Recover produces a bootable image which can recreate the system's original storage layout. Once that is done it initiates a restore from backup. Since the storage layout can be modified prior to recovery, and disimilar hardware and virtualization is supported, Relax-and-Recover offers the flexibility to be used for complex system migrations. "Currently Relax-and-Recover supports various boot media (incl. ISO, PXE, OBDR tape, USB or eSATA storage), a variety of network protocols (incl. sftp, ftp, http, nfs, cifs) as well as a multitude of backup strategies (incl. IBM TSM, HP DataProtector, Symantec NetBackup, EMC NetWorker [Legato], Bacula, Bareos, rsync)." Looking at the spec file for the RPM it relies on either syslinux which is for x86/x86_64 or yaboot which is for ppc, to provide the standalone boot. There doesn’t seem to be an equivalent for s390x. It’s a noarch package so it builds cleanly, just not usable until the boot bit is provided.
