    Please advise which AIX tools can be used to backup the filesystems /usr, /var, /tmp, /home, /opt, /oracle, /opt/oracle, /oracle/GSP, /usr/sap, /sapmnt, /usr/sap/GSP, and /usr/sap/trans. Thanks!!

    I understand we can use mksysb to backup the root volume group. Need help for the rest.

    The backup mechanism, depends on the frequency you want to backup as well as the LVM structure.
