Solution: If tar or cpio are used to perform a SCO Unix Backup the system can be recovered however it may need to be repaired by a SCO Unix Support technician as the symbolic link and certain system files such as pipe files will not be backed up unless the proper options were used on cpio. Typically a re-installation of the OS is performed and then the system is restored using the files on the tar (Tape Archive) or cpio.
It is imperative that once the drive has been determined to be faulty it is recovered by a SCO Unix Support professional with SCO Unix experience. This is even more imperative when a RAID environment is used.
