The default for the backup command is ‘‘incremental,’’ meaning that files on tape
with newer timestamps than those on disk are not overwritten. This can occur
when a save is made to tape. Save followed by backup will still work, but time
can be saved by
restore disk
.
Inconsistency across SPEs
When the SPE is duplicated, disruptions to inter-SPE communication, or MSS
writes on one SPE but not on the other, can cause files to be inconsistent
between devices on the different SPEs. You can detect this situation by running
list configuration software long
and inspecting the timestamps and software
version numbers. Correct procedure depends on which device has the correct
boot image.

1.

3. Put the tape cartridge from the active SPE into the tape drive on the
standby SPE. Put the tape cartridge from the standby SPE into the tape
drive on the active SPE.
