Restore data with ON-Bar
You can use the ON-Bar utility to restore data that was backed up by the ON-Bar utility.
Before you restore data, use the pre-restore checklist to determine if whether a restore is needed and to prepare for a restore.
To perform a restore with the ON-Bar utility:
- Make the storage devices that were available during the backup available for the restore.
- If necessary, add enough temporary space to perform the restore. The logical log restore portion of a warm restore requires temporary space. The minimum amount of temporary space is equal to the smaller of the total amount of allocated logical-log space and the number of log files to be replayed.
- Run the onbar -r command with the appropriate options to restore the data.
- Monitor the ON-Bar activity log.
- After the restore is complete, run the onstat -d command to verify that all storage spaces are restored. The letter O in the flags column indicates that the chunk is online.
