Overview
This article describes, how to restore the SEP sesam Server from tape via sbc without the program sm_recover. For details on SBC CLI usage and available commands, see SBC CLI.
Prerequisites
- Set operating system (OS) with working tape drive or loader device.
- Installed SEP sesam Server (identical version to the preceding system). For details on installation, see SEP sesam Quick Install Guide.
- A medium that contains correctly saved SESAM_BACKUP (backed up SEP sesam's <SESAM_VAR> and <SESAM_ROOT>/bin/sesam directories).
Restoring from tape via sbc command
In order to restore the SEP sesam Server from tape by using the sbc command, proceed as follows:
- Display the existing savesets on the tape via sm_sms_interface:
|
Note
|
On Windows, replace the tape device identifier (/dev/nst0) with the corresponding Windows device (Tape0).
|
Important information from the output:
- Segment number (4)
- Saveset name (SC20090610105624)
- Tape label (cefix00001)
- Tape ID (1)
- Restore the saveset by using the sbc command:
sbc -r -l FULL -C <control_host>:11001 -S <storage_host>:11001 -d SMS:<tape_device> -t <tape_name>:<tape_id> -s <saveset_id> -n <segment_number> -R / -o overwrite
- <control_host> is always the SEP sesam Server.
- <storage_host> can be the SEP sesam Server or Remote Device Server (RDS) with the attached medium.
|
Note
|
In our example, the command overwrites existing data files (-o overwrite)! If you do not want to overwrite the files, make sure to remove the overwrite option. You can also change the restore target with the -R <path>.
