Sun Microsystems 3 manual Using the Restore Command-line Utility

Managing an Engine Database

Using the Restore Command-line Utility

The Dump/Restore facility’s DrRestore command retrieves data which has been dumped to an ASCII file and restores it into an engine database.

Syntax for drrest command:

drrest -eengine_name [-ddirectory_name] [-vdata_file_name]

[-t registrationstatehistory]

As in all iPlanet UDS command line specifications, if you use a name that includes a space, you should enclose the name in double quotation marks.

The following table describes the command line flags for the DrRestore command:

Flag	Description
-eengine_name	The name of the iIS engine in the current environment. This
	flag is required.
-ddirectory_name	The directory in which to place the dump files. The default
	value is the root directory.
-vdata_file_name	The name of the data file. The default value is dumprest.log.
-t	The category of tables to dump. Valid values are
registrationstate	REGISTRATION, STATE, HISTORY. The default is all
history	categories. To specify a combination of two categories, use a
	colon (:) between categories. For example:
	-t registration:state
	Alternatively, you can enter the -tflag for each category. For
	example:
	-e myEngine -t registration -t state

If you have set the environment variables described in “Dump/Restore Environment Variables” on page 136, then you do not need to supply values for the command line flags.
