IMPORTANT:
There are several scenarios, depending on the backup option Keep archive logs
and the recovery option Use existing archive logs, in which a gap of
transactions between the sequence of redo logs on the SAP DB/MaxDB Server and the
restored volumes can occur. When performing recovery (when the database is switched
to the Online mode), SAP DB/MaxDB always checks whether such a gap exists,
regardless of the point in time selected for recovery. If such a gap exists, the recovery is
not performed and the database remains in the Admin mode, unless the existing redo
logs are manually deleted before starting the restore.
The following are descriptions of the recovery options. First the GUI option is given,
followed by a slash (/), CLI equivalent, and then description.
Recovery / -recover
When this option is selected, the database is recovered after the restore (it is
switched to Online mode) by applying the redo logs until the latest version (if
the Latest version option is selected) or until the specified date and time (if the
Until date option is selected).
IMPORTANT:
When using this option, make sure that the backup session selected
in the Properties for Data dialog box (when using GUI) or by the
-session option (when using CLI) will restore enough data for
the integration to apply the redo logs until the latest version or until
the specified date and time. For information on how to access the
Properties for Data dialog box, see
information on the -session option, refer to
Data Protector
When this option is not selected, all other recovery options are disabled and the
following happens after the restore:
• If archive logs are not restored (if restore from a full backup session is
performed), the database remains in the Admin mode after the restore.
• If archive logs are restored, the database is, if the restored archive logs allow
it, switched to the Online mode. If the database, however, cannot be
switched to the Online mode (because the restored archive logs do not
allow it), it remains in the Admin mode.
