System Maintenance
Run all of the restore scripts found in the directory;
$OV_CONF/ovbackup/restore/operational/ including
ito_restore.sh and nnm_restore.ovpl. The ito_restore.sh
script restores the Oracle database asking you to choose between the
following restore options:
a. to the state of the last backup?
b. to the most recent state? - a rollforward is done based on the
off-line redo logs from the backup and the off-line redo logs on the
system.
3. Restore analytical data (if the -analytical option or no option at all
is specified):
Run all of the restore scripts found in the directory;
$OV_CONF/ovbackup/restore/analytical/ including
nnm_restore.ovpl.
ovrestore.ovpl stores progress information in the same file as
ovbackup.ovpl, namely: /var/opt/OV/tmp/ovbackup.log
The ito_restore.sh script which is integrated in the
ovrestore.ovpl script allows you to restore the complete Oracle
database either to the state of the backup or to the most recent state (a
rollforward is done based on the off-line, redo logs). However, using
Oracle's archive-log mode offers more possibilities. For example:
• you can retrieve single, corrupt data files from the backup and
recover them with off-line redo logs.
• with a backup and off-line redo logs, you can recover data up to a
specified point in time.
Recovery Scenarios after an Automated Backup
The automated backup scripts backup only configuration data and
dynamic data. Consequently, if binaries or static configuration files are
lost, they have to be recovered (before the restore) in one of the following
ways:
• Re-install ITO. If SD (Software Distributor) thinks ITO is already
installed, you may need to use the option Reinstall Fileset even
if the same revision already exists.
