[rear-users] Linux VM on LPAR with ReaR backup/restore issue!

[Gratien D'haese]

Have a look into the rear.log file to see why the backup is not working
properly.
IBM LPAR needs probably something special - like ttyS1 as
console? 

Try adding "KERNEL_CMDLINE="selinux=0 console=tty0
console=ttyS1" in the local.conf file and see what happens when you boot
from an ISO image. 

If the problem remains please create an issue.

Hi, 

I am using ReaR for backup and restore of my Linux VM's,
The VM's running on VMware ESX platform working great , restoration is fine
but the Linux VM's  

running on LPAR creating issues while boot . Please
help. 

I have used the below command : 

#REAR MKBACKUP 

But when I see
the directory where its backed up I can see the below files: I have also a
doubt as the backed up tar file size is very small. Not sure. 

-rw-r--r--
1 root root 531 Jan 29 04:03 backup.log 

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 15163 Jan
