Restoring an SAP DB/MaxDB Database
Chapter 3 299
Example To restore an instance named “inst1” (together with configuration),
backed up on an SAP DB/MaxDB Server named “srv1.company.com”
from the last backup session and then perform a recovery until the end of
logs, enter the following command:
UNIX On HP-UX:
/opt/omni/bin/omnir -sapdb -barhost srv1.company.com
-instance inst1 -recover -endlogs
On other UNIX:
/usr/omni/bin/omnir -sapdb -barhost srv1.company.com
-instance inst1 -recover -endlogs
Windows <Data_Protector_home>\omnir -sapdb -barhost
srv1.company.com -instance inst1 -recover -endlogs
The restore session can be monitored in the Data Protector Monitor
window, where mount prompts for the required media are also displayed.
