Hi all,
i am taking oracle database backup by fbackup utility...
my procedure is like this --
i am taking backup from EVA to MSA.
suppose i have created one logical vol and mounted on /dbbackup on MSA...afterword i removed this mount point and i want to restore this Database backup from tape to directly on EVA..
DB is utilising 2 Ultiums..will it ask automatically for 2nd tape?
How can i achive restoration at original location on EVA, suppose on EVA mount point is /back_inca..

Thanks
Yog

Hi,

From man fbackup .

-V path Volume Number
This field contains a # character followed by 3 digits, and identifies the number of volumes in the backup.

So it will asked for next media once finished first.

Further you should look for restoring data to alternate location as you backed up from /dbbackup & are restoring to /back_inca...
As your fbackup is only concerned about mount point not your EVA/MSA.

man frecover for details

HTH,
Devender

Hi
The next media will be prompted once the first media is finished

try frecover with this option
-X Recover files relative to the current working directory. Normally frecover recovers files to their absolute path name
