Backup on inst1 and restore on inst2
Posted in 2006
Hi all,
I have 2 instances IDS 10 (inst1 and inst2) on the same machine Windows
2003.
The 2 instances have the same configuration, unless DBSERVERNAME and
SERVERNUM and the same structure.
I would like to know if is it possible to backup the datas of the inst1
and make a restore with the ontape and the -rename option on the inst2.
Example backup on inst1:
--> C:\\IFMXDATA\\inst1\\rootdbs_dat.000
--> C:\\IFMXDATA\\inst1\\dbs1_dat.000
Can I make the restore on inst2:
ontape -r -rename -p C:\\IFMXDATA\\inst1\\dbs1_dat.000 -o 0 -n
C:\\IFMXDATA\\inst2\\dbs1_dat.000 -o 0 -rename -p
C:\\IFMXDATA\\inst1\\rootdbs_dat.000 -o 0 -n
C:\\IFMXDATA\\inst2\\rootdbs_dat.000 -o 0
In my test I got the error:
Physical restore failed - Invalid DBspace list
but pheraphs I made some errors...
I would have a secondary instance with the updated datas of the primary
instance, but I shouldn't stop the primary instance to make a dbexport
during the night.
Thank you,
Francesco
