74 EFS Systems on a Linux Base: Additional Topics
We decided to verify that a ckdbackup file made from a standard Linux file could be restored
correctly to a raw device. We used the CD created as described in “Standard Linux files” on
page 72. We used the raw device setup as described in “Basic implementation” on page 58.
We already had our original S4RES1 volume on /dev/raw/A80 and we did not want to lose it.
After running our shLV script (to activate LVM and establish our four basic 3390 volumes) we
