Restoring the Data Protector Cell Manager Specifics

This section explains additional steps for particular methods that should be performed when restoring Windows Cell Manager.

Making IDB consistent (all methods)

The procedure described in this section should only be used after you have performed the general disaster recovery procedure.

To make the IDB consistent, you have to import the medium with the last backup so that the information about the backed up objects is imported to the database. In order to do so, you have to perform the following steps:

1.Using the Data Protector GUI, recycle the medium or media with the backup of the partitions that remain to be restored for enabling the medium or media to be imported in the IDB. Refer to “Recycling Media” on page 110 for more information on how to do this. Sometimes it is not possible to recycle a medium since Data Protector keeps it locked. In such a case stop Data Protector processes and delete the \tmp directory by running the following commands:

<Data_Protector_home>\bin\omnisv -stop del <Data_Protector_home>\tmp\*.* <Data_Protector_home>\bin\omnisv -start

2.Using the Data Protector GUI, export the medium or media with the backup of the partitions that remain to be restored. Refer to “Exporting Media from Data Protector” on page 112 for more information on how to do this.

3.Using the Data Protector GUI, import the medium or media with the backup of the partitions that remain to be restored. Refer to “Importing Media” on page 100 for more information on how to do this.
