No dbspaces or blobspaces during a backup or restore
If the emergency boot file, ixbar.servernum, does not have the correct entries for objects in the backup, the message There are no DB/BLOBspaces to backup/restore appears in bar_act.log file during a restore started with the onbar -r or onbar -r -w command.
This error can appear under the following circumstances:
- During an external restore, if the emergency boot file was not copied from the source system.
- If the emergency boot file was recreated after the archive backup
was made. The previous file is saved in the form:
ixbar.xx.xxxx
. - An attempt to execute the onbar -r -w command with a backup that is not a full system backup.
