Re: mksysb backup on NIM server. | | Firstly, define each LPAR within NIM.
Then once defined, you can run the following which will take a mysysb of the LPAR's, however, you will need to perform a backupiso for the VIO Server LPAR as a MKSYSB will not work.
nim -o define -t mksysb -aserver=master -alocation=/location/of/mksysb/nameofmksysb -amk_image=yes -asource=LPARNAME -acomments="LPARNAME mksysb" LPARNAME-mksysb
Replace LPARNAME with the lpar you defined within NIM.
