Hi,
the easiest way is to connect an external Disk to the Sytsme and make an
ufsdump (with cron) of all partions.
With a little script (sed) you have to modify the vfstab and set an
bootblock on the disk.
If your system crashes you can boot the external disk from an other machine
(same Hardware).
Downtime = Boottime.
If you need a script mail me.
Regards
Reiner

As others have mentioned upgrade_export will back up FW config, but it will
not get your Solaris OS settings which are numerous. All exist in /etc so
what I do is cd to /etc, 'tar -cvf fwbackup<date>.tar *', then move tar file
to $FWDIR/conf, then tar contents of FWDIR, then ftp tar file off to cold
standby backup server.
This way you will have a tar file that contains everything you need that you
can easily move to backup server or to tape.
You can put these steps in a script and run it with cron periodically.
hope this helps
Hal
