Archecker Table Level restore
A user on IDS 10.00.FC8 (HP-UX) tried a point-in-time table-level restore with archecker into external (.unl) tables and hit "Execute (name lock) failed", -261 cannot create file for informix.acu_lock and -131 ISAM no free disk space, despite plenty of space and the .unl files being created. Joe Plugge suggested checking directory writability and trying a restore into real tables instead. The poster then found that logical restore to external tables isn't supported; adding WITH NO LOG to the restore statement let the job run, though the thread ends before confirming success.

Im trying to do a point in time table level restore with archecker.. but I get a disk space error. I have checked to see where I may be out of space, but can't see anything. Can someone tell me where it is trying to create this lock table?

Laurie,
Do you have the option (space in dbspace crimelab,or another dbspace) to try
this restore to database table instead of external tables? Might be worth a
shot to see if there is something amiss with the external table restore
functionality. Are you able to or have you in the past restored a table on
this instance using external table method?
Joe

Subject: Archecker Table Level restore [18648]
Im trying to do a point in time table level restore with archecker.. but I get
a disk space error. I have checked to see where I may be out of space, but
can't see anything. Can someone tell me where it is trying to create this lock
table?
Thanks

Hmmm - I found where you can't do a logical restore to external tables - that
must have been causing the error. I didn't want to do a logical restore
because I want to filter the data, so I added WITH NO LOG to my restore
statement. IT is running now, we will see if it works.
Thanks!

Laurie,
Do you have the option (space in dbspace crimelab,or another dbspace) to try
this restore to database table instead of external tables? Might be worth a
shot to see if there is something amiss with the external table restore
functionality. Are you able to or have you in the past restored a table on
this instance using external table method?
Joe

One of the tables you are restoring contains a text blob, this
requires some staging space which is in the form of a table.
You can direct this table to a different dbspace or set of
dbspaces using the SET command in your command file
SET WORKSPACE TO dbspace1;
or
SET WORKSPACE TO dbspace1,dbspace2, dbspace3;

ok- I think I am getting closer...
I added the SET WORKSPACE command.. that took care of the disk space error.
but... when I run with a filter, I get no rows returned, when I am sure the
rows should be in the archive...
when I run with no filter I get this error:
ERROR: -1263: A field in a datetime or interval value is incorrect or an
illegal operation
ERROR: Unable to convert page(14_799835) for partnum 14680137
ERROR: "PUT CURSOR" failed
It seems odd that I would get a date error on every record.. any clues?
note: I have also switched from external tables to regular tables in the
database.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Laurie

One of the tables you are restoring contains a text blob, this
requires some staging space which is in the form of a table.
You can direct this table to a different dbspace or set of
dbspaces using the SET command in your command file
SET WORKSPACE TO dbspace1;
or
SET WORKSPACE TO dbspace1,dbspace2, dbspace3;

From the partnum listed you should be able to tell which table is causing
the
problem. After you have identified the problem table please re-verify the
schema
for that table. I see a few of your tables have columns which are
datetimes,
double check the datetime qualifier on these tables, the order of all
columns
and the number of columns.
The error is being produced because archecker is taking the row off the
archive and converting column by column to an ascii value. This conversion
is failing for the datetime values.

I did verify the schema and they match. I am using the same user/profile to
restore that was used to create the archive... but Im wondering if I need to
set the DBDATE environment variable? We have gotten this date error
occasionally (very seldom) with some of our apps when the data is actually
fine...
Im have cut back to trying to restore just one table... the new cmd file is
below -
database crimelab;
create table reportpdf (
reportid INT not null,
reportdate DATETIME YEAR TO MINUTE,
createdby CHAR(8),
reportpdf BYTE
) in crimelab;
create table tlr_reportpdf (
reportid INT not null,
reportdate DATETIME YEAR TO MINUTE,
createdby CHAR(8),
reportpdf BYTE
);
Insert into tlr_reportpdf Select * from reportpdf;
RESTORE to '2010-01-11 13:00:00' ;
SET WORKSPACE to pstemp_1;
Thanks

I did verify the schema and they match. I am using the same user/profile to
restore that was used to create the archive... but Im wondering if I need to
set the DBDATE environment variable? We have gotten this date error
occasionally (very seldom) with some of our apps when the data is actually
fine...
Im have cut back to trying to restore just one table... the new cmd file is
below -
database crimelab;
create table reportpdf (
reportid INT not null,
reportdate DATETIME YEAR TO MINUTE,
createdby CHAR(8),
reportpdf BYTE
) in crimelab;
create table tlr_reportpdf (
reportid INT not null,
reportdate DATETIME YEAR TO MINUTE,
createdby CHAR(8),
reportpdf BYTE
);
Insert into tlr_reportpdf Select * from reportpdf;
RESTORE to '2010-01-11 13:00:00' ;
SET WORKSPACE to pstemp_1;
Thanks

schema
for that table. I see a few of your tables have columns which are
datetimes,
double check the datetime qualifier on these tables, the order of all
columns
and the number of columns.
The error is being produced because archecker is taking the row off the
archive and converting column by column to an ascii value. This conversion
is failing for the datetime values.

I think you should probably call this into support. Does your table have
any ER shadow
columns. Can you try changing the insert statement to the following:
Being that this table has blobs, it must be staged, but
the fact that it reported 64,599 rows inserted as
part of physical restore. Still lead me to believe
the row image on the archive and schema provided do not
match.
Insert into tlr_reportpdf(eportid, reportdate, createdby)
Select eportid, reportdate, createdby from reportpdf;
Support will probably ask you to turn on some additional diagnostic code
which
can be done by adding the following statement into the command file
SET DEBUG [HIGH | MEDIUM | LOW]
This output will be put into the current message log file.
Hope this helps,
John
