Creation of a Private System container and knowing the features supported | HP-UX System Containers | HP9000 Containers

Creation of a Private System container

from the global system run the below command to create a SRP System container of the private type.

This copies the files from the global system to a folder name as /var/hpsrp/<cSRPNAME>

Ensure that you have enough space on the /var/hpsrp on the global system.

In case you plan that you want also to import and export the system container to a different system also you may better plan to have the /var/hpsrp/<cSRP> to be hosted on a SAN/ISCSI LUN which both the source and the target global systems can see and can access.
