Integrating SAP DB/MaxDB and Data Protector
Restoring an SAP DB/MaxDB Database
Chapter 3 297
If you select a Trans or a Diff backup session, you are given a
possibility to:
• Perform a full restore of the database (the Full restore of
database option). In this case, the integration automatically
determines the chain of needed full, differential or transactional
backup sessions when performing a restore. After the restore has
finished, the database is, if the Recovery option is selected,
switched to the Online mode.
• Restore only the selected backup session (the Restore only this
backup option). If a database becomes consistent after such a
restore and if the Recovery option is selected, it is switched to the
Online mode. Otherwise, the database is left in the Admin mode.
Restoring only the selected trans or diff backup session is useful if
the database remains offline or in the Admin mode after a restore
from full backup session, which is then followed by a restore from
diff or trans backup session.
Click OK to close the Properties for Data dialog box.
4. Click the Options tab to set the restore and recovery options. See
“SAP DB/MaxDB Restore and Recovery Options” on page 304 for
more information on SAP DB/MaxDB restore and recovery options.
5. Click Restore to start the restore session.
When the session starts, messages are displayed in the Results Area.
Upon successful completion, a message is issued in the Session
Information dialog box.
