I need to work up a full version of this and put it elsewhere. Sorry for the rather disorganized presention of the data. (You're welcome to waste your time trying, however.) If you decide to follow the other instructions in the links at the top of the page, you will almost certainly run out of memory trying to boot using the defbootstr method instead of the unix.install method.

#ACRONIS RESCUE MEDIA 2010 FULL ISO 9000 DRIVER#

But compared to getting the Buslink driver to work, that's a piece of cake.

It is also recommended that you clean up any tape drives, cron jobs for hte backups, etc. If you are able to load the driver but you stil can't boot due to an error 22, then your partitions are probably whacked and you need to try another method to image it. Vi /etc/default/boot (change the boot string line to read and save:)ĭEFBOOTSTR=hd(40)unix swap=hd(41) dump=hd(41) root=hd(42) disable=usb_uhci,usb_ohci,usb_ehciġ0) Login and follow the instructions for changing / cleaning up the NIC configuration:Īt that point, you should be all set. (answer yes to everything, including rebuilding the kernel) (Comment out any other lines that don't start with 'wd' and save) Vi /etc/conf/cf.d/mscsi and add a line that says: Login in SINGLE USER MODE using CTRL-D and enter your root PW and run the following: If you see files pop up, you've got the right one.ħ) Run the following command (this is where I break with most of the instructions out there): (In my case, I had to use /dev/sdb on the source machine and /dev/sda on the destination.)Ģ) Create a VM with OS type 'Other 32-bit' using Buslogic for SCSIįor VMware Server/Workstation, use IDE disks (to avoid the hassle coming up with Buslogic drivers)Ĥ) Resize the image to 720K (required or it won't read on ESX/ESXi) using ddĭd if=blc_3.05.1.btld.img of=blc_3.05. bs=720k count=1ĥ) Clone the disk image to the VM (you'll need to upload and mount an ISO for whatever disk you used to make the image and the floppy if using ESX/ESXi)Ħ) Boot the VM and at the Boot: prompt and find the floppy drive by typing 'dir fd()' and 'dir fd(64)'. This process pipes dd read data over a netcat connection and and receiver reads that port and writes it to destination drive. Master% dd if=/dev/sda | nc 192.168.0.254 9000 (replace IP address with the IP address of the slave) Slave% nc -l -p 9000 | dd of=/dev/sda (Replace /dev/sda with actual drive on your slave machine) UPDATE: Use the instructions here: (All it requires is connectivity between the machines and a couple of a pair of Knoppix CD (or other live distrros) If this doesn't work, you can try another cloning tool OR. Here is my quick and dirty method: (If you're using Workstation or Server, then skip steps 3,4 and 6-9 aka the hard part)ġ) Clone the entire disk (with boot sector) using Acronis (I use version 9.1, but newer should work) You can certainly do it and I have on multiple occassions with varying degrees of pain using information I cobbled together from the following sites:

If anyone has been able to do this please post detail instructions on how to do this as i am new to sco openserver but my linux and solaris skills are helping me alot.

#ACRONIS RESCUE MEDIA 2010 FULL ISO 9000 FREE#

hence i need to P2V the current sco openserver into vmware server( the free edition) untill sco anounces support for it next year and then buy vmware esx and move the virtual mahine into esx server. I've also heard chatter about Vmware supporting sco as of first quarter next year 2009 but i cannot wait that long to replace our current production server. I also saw the post on using Acronis but I cannot justify spending $700 on aconis when the sales rep could not guarantee that it would work.

#ACRONIS RESCUE MEDIA 2010 FULL ISO 9000 INSTALL#

I have managed to do this successfully with a desktop pc running sco openserver and vmware cold clone, granted I had to relink support for the blc driver into the sco kernel.I followed the instructions on aplawrence on how to install sco openserver into a VM environment and could only get it to work with ide disks and not scsi.My problem is that esx only emulates scsi disks.First prize would then be to P2V the exisitng server into a virtual environment.I have read that this might present issues with networking. I would much rather save the current configuration by using P2V to move the machine into a vm environment.

I am currentley in a situation where i need to replace our aging Hp sco openserver 5 server with a new HP D元80 G5. Hi there, have you had much luck with migrating your sco openserver box toa VM environment.
