Restartable Restore Example

The following example shows how to use restartable restore for a cold restore:

  1. Make sure that RESTARTABLE_RESTORE is ON.

    If you just set RESTARTABLE_RESTORE to ON, shut down and restart the database server for the changes to take effect.

  2. Restore several storage spaces:
    onbar -r rootdbs dbs1 dbs2 dbs3 dbs4

    The database server fails while restoring dbs3.

  3. Restart the restore:
    onbar -RESTART 

    ON–Bar automatically starts restoring dbs3, dbs4, and the logical logs.

  4. If necessary, bring the database server online:
    onmode -m

Important:
If a restore fails with RESTARTABLE_RESTORE set to OFF, the onbar -RESTART option will not work. Use the onbar -r command to repeat the restore from the beginning.
