frecover help

Zee — Mon, 20 Jun 2005 08:41:08 GMT

We use fbackup to backup the hpux system.

fbackup -f /dev/rmt/1m -i /ora/data
-i /ora/redo -i/ora/arch

Now i want to restore all three directories using frecover command on another hp-ux but under different directories.

like /ora/arch -> /ora/backup/arch
/ora/data -> /ora/backup/data
/ora/redo -> /ora/backup/redo

i know i can do these.

cd /ora/backup/data
frecover -x -F -i /ora/data -f /dev/rmt/1m
cd /ora/backup/redo
frecover -x -F -i /ora/redo -f /dev/rmt/1m
cd /ora/backup/arch
frecover -x -F -i /ora/arch -f /dev/rmt/1m

Is there any way i can achieve the above in one frecover command ?

Thanks,

Try-

cd /ora/backup/data
frecover -x -X -i /ora/data -i /ora/redo ...
cd ora
mv data ..
mv redo ..
mv arch ..
cd ..
rmdir ora

Thanks for your reply, these are there different file systems, not enough disk space to restore all three in one filesystem.

This can't be done in a single run for frecover. The -X option says to recover the files without leading directories so they will be stored in the current directory. You'll need to run it once for one set of files, then change directories and run frecover again for another set of files.

So do them one at a time.

frecover, copy the files where they need to go, repeat as many times as needed.
