Restores profile data. This command is valid only in an Integrated Virtualization Manager environment.
To restore logical partition configuration data from a file:
rstprofdata -l RestoreType [-f RestoreFile] [ --ignoremtms ] [ --ignoremac ] [ -m ManagedSystem ]
The rstprofdata command performs a restore of logical partition configuration information from a file which was created with the bkprofdata command. Logical partition configuration must be cleared using the lpcfgop command before performing a restore operation. The restore operation may require a restart of the managed system, after which the rstprofdata command should be run again with the same parameters as were used the first time (before the system restart).
| -l RestoreType | The type of restore to perform. Valid options are:
1 - full restore from the backup file |
| -f RestoreFile | The name of the file to read from in the current working directory. If not specified, the default file will be "/var/adm/lpm/profile.bak" |
| --ignoremtms | Do not fail the restore if the type, model, or serial number of the managed system does not match the values in the backup file. |
| --ignoremac | Do not try to restore the virtual Ethernet MAC addresses from the backup file. Default to the automatically generated MAC addresses. |
| -m ManagedSystem | The name of the managed system. This attribute is optional because there is only one system to manage. The name may either be the user-defined name for the managed system, or be in the form tttt-mmm*ssssssss, where tttt is the machine type, mmm is the model, and ssssssss is the serial number of the managed system. |
| --help | Display the help text for this command and exit. |
This command has a return code of zero on success.
