It is recommended that you perform a restore operation immediately after your first full backup to understand the process.
You can perform a basic restore operation to restore and recover an entire database. The following section provides step-by-step instructions for running your first basic restore:
| 1. | Open the DBM Command line Interface and verify the status of the database. |
#> dbmcli -d CERT1 -u dbm,dbm -uUTL dbmcli on CERT1>db_state OK State ADMIN |
| 2. | MAXDB should be in admin (cold) state to perform a basic restore operation. If the database is in online (warm) mode, execute the command. |
#> dbmcli -d CERT1 -u dbm,dbm db_cold |
| 3. | Type the command to check all backup IDs. The command should return OK. |
# dbmcli -d CERT1 -u dbm,dbm -uUTL dbmcli on CERT1>backup_ext_ids_get BackData2 OK |
| 4. | Type the command to list all the External Backup ID's. The command should return OK and display a list of all External Backup ID's. |
dbmcli on CERT1>backup_ext_ids_list OK END AVAILABLE|CERT1 SAP_0_46 /space/sdb/data/cert1/files /pipe_mem1|DATA MIGRATION|2005-11-05 16:11:49| AVAILABLE|CERT1 SAP_0_46 /space/sdb/data/cert1/files /pipe_mem2|DATA MIGRATION|2005-11-05 16:11:49| |
| 5. | Type the command to execute the restore of entire database. |
dbmcli on CERT1> recover_start BackData2 DATA ExternalBackupID "CERT1 SAP_0_46 /space/sdb/data/cert1/files/pipe_mem1, CERT1 SAP_0_46 /space/sdb/data/cert1/files/pipe_mem2" |
| The restore should complete without any errors. |
dbmcli on CERT1>exit OK |
|
| 6. | You can monitor the progress of the restore job in the Job Controller or Event Viewer window of the CommCell Console. |
 |
| 7. |
Once the restore job has completed, right-click the entity
(e.g. agent, instance) and click View
| Restore History. If the entity chosen is the client computer, click View | Job History.
|
 |
| 8. | Click OK. |
