options (Volume Restore Disk Agent options) and arguments needed for the restore.
When the options and arguments are retrieved, the restore of the IDB is performed
using the retrieved options and arguments to the original location overwriting the
current files.
The obrindex.dat file resides on the Cell Manager in the directory
Data_Protector_program_data\db40\logfiles\rlog (Windows Server
2008), Data_Protector_home\db40\logfiles\rlog (other Windows systems),
or /var/opt/omni/server/db40/logfiles/rlog (UNIX systems). The
obrindex.dat file is written to at every backup of the IDB and contains the Media
Options, RMA Options and VRDA options and arguments needed for the
restore of the IDB and the name of the transaction log created at the IDB backup
time. You can create a copy of the obrindex.dat file by setting the
RecoveryIndexDir parameter in the Data Protector global options file to point to
a directory where you want to have a copy of the obrindex.dat file. If the
obrindex.dat file is missing or is corrupted, the omnidbrestore command will
use its copy if the RecoveryIndexDir parameter points to the directory with the
copy. The Data Protector global options file (global) resides on the Cell Manager
in the directory Data_Protector_program_data\Config\Server\Options
(Windows Server 2008), Data_Protector_home\Config\Server\Options
(other Windows systems), or /etc/opt/omni/server/options (UNIX systems).
THE READ MODE
The read mode is invoked using the -read option. Omnidbrestore reads the
options and arguments from the file that has been created manually or using the
-autorecover -save OptionFile option. This is useful in case the restore devices
are different from the backup devices (or attached to a different system). In such a
case the OptionFile has to be manually updated with the appropriate restore
device data before the restore is started.
THE MANUAL MODE
The manual mode is used if the obrindex.dat file is not available and you have
to specify all the needed Media Options, RMA Options and VRDA options
and arguments manually.
