Restoring one or more members of a set of related databases
You must consider the relationships among VOBs when backing them up and, especially, when restoring them.
As described in Backing up related databases together, database relationships are most complex in a UCM environment, in which dozens of VOBs are connected by cross-VOB hyperlinks of various kinds, and where there might also be a Rational® ClearQuest® database that holds references to objects in one or more PVOBs. Whenever one or more of these databases is restored from backup, skew (inconsistencies) between databases is a likely result.
- A component VOB is restored from backup.
- A Rational ClearQuest database is restored from backup.
- A PVOB is restored from backup.
