Re: Restore to previous Zero level

There are two parts to this questions: 1. How to I get a previous archive to restore, onbar by default choose the most current? You will have to add into you restore command line a "-t <date/time just after the level 0>" If you do not know the date and time of the archive check $INFORMIXDIR/etc/ixbar.{servernum}. This file contains a single row for each backup object along with the date and time. 2. Can I do a physical restore only without rolling forward my logical logs? If you took the level 0 archive with the "-w" flag then you can do a physical only restore, if not you will be required to do some logical restore. For a physical only restore add the "-p" option into your command line.
