Starting Buagent for BMR
Symptom
Unable to perform BMR because buagent is not started in recovery mode.
Resolution
Option1 (from command line)
sh ./linux-agent-version-here.run -- --pxe
Option 2 (edit init script)
There IS a way to do this to an existing install. All you have to do is edit the init script:
# vi /etc/init.d/buagent
and look for this line:
# options to buagent
BUAGENT_OPTS=""
Inside the quotes, add the "-r" option to start the agent in recovery mode:
# options to buagent
BUAGENT_OPTS="-r"
