    If I have a System p5 and a tape, like 3581 or 3573, attached to the SAN, it is possible to obtain a mksysb to the tape. However if I need to restore the mksysb image, is it possible??, maybe if I boot the server with the AIX cds and start a maintenance session to restore mksysb, the tape attached to SAN would be visible to install the mksysb image??. AIX is 5.3, tl04 or greater.

    Thanks.
