Integrating SAP DB/MaxDB and Data Protector
Restoring an SAP DB/MaxDB Database
Chapter 3306
When using the CLI, it is not possible to change the
user name and the group name. The same user as used
during the backup session is used.
Settings / N/A Click this button if the instance you are restoring to is
not yet configured for use with this integration. See
step 4. on page 273 for information on parameters that
must be entered.
When using the CLI, this option is not available. To
configure the instance, use the util_sapdb.exe utility
as described in “Modifying the Configuration of an SAP
DB/MaxDB Instance Using the CLI” on page 274.
Recovery Options Use the recovery options to recover the database by applying the redo
logs until the latest version or until the specified date and time.
IMPORTANT There are several scenarios, depending on the backup option Keep
archive logs and the recovery option Use existing archive logs, in
which a gap of transactions between the sequence of redo logs on the
SAP DB/MaxDB Server and the restored volumes can occur. When
performing recovery (when the database is switched to the Online
mode), SAP DB/MaxDB always checks whether such a gap exists,
regardless of the point in time selected for recovery. If such a gap exists,
the recovery is not performed and the database remains in the Admin
mode, unless the existing redo logs are manually deleted before starting
the restore.
The following are descriptions of the recovery options. First the GUI
option is given, followed by a slash (/), CLI equivalent, and then
description.
Recovery / -recover When this option is selected, the database is
recovered after the restore (it is switched to Online
mode) by applying the redo logs until the latest version
(if the Latest version option is selected) or until the
specified date and time (if the Until date option is
selected).
