Assuming that you have tape to backup to and that you have access to a profile with sufficient privilege, then your quickest way to build a bootable tape is by typing at a command line: go save You'll want to scroll down and you'll find '21 Entire System'. This produces a bootable, full system backup tape from which you can restore your system to bare metal. Typically, your tape drive will have a device name of TAP01, particularly on a 170 (a rather smallish system). If you need further help feel free to ask. I work on these systems every week a two different clients. Barry
