Starting a Backup Using the CLI

<Data_Protector_home>\bin (Windows systems) directory on an SAP
R/3 Database Server system and run the following command:
omnib -sap_list <backup_specification_name> [-barmode
<SapMode>][list_options]
You can select among the following list_options:
-protect {none | weeks n | days n | until date | permanent}
-load {low | medium | high}
-crc
-no_monitor
SapMode = {-full | -incr}
Refer to the omnib man page for details.
Example To start a backup using an SAP R/3 backup specification called RONA, run
the following command:
omnib -sap_list RONA
