: All,
: I am trying to restore a production backup onto a DR machine. We're using Onbar (Inf 9.14) and Legato Networker. The manuals indicate this can be done, using onbar -b -w -L0 and then onbar -r -w -p on the DR machine (both machines use same Legato Server). Ifmx tech support are now telling me this cant be done. I cant believe this, has anybody done anything similar (with any storage manager).
: How do you tell the DR server to look for Prod backups?
You also need to install Networker and BSMI in your DR machine too. So
the DR machine is a client to your backup server.
We are doing this on 7.23 ONLINE and Networker 5, with BSMI 1.1, remember
to copy ixbar.* on oncfg_* files to the DR machine too. We don't have
logical log backup, so we just use '-b -w' then '-r -w'.
