Troubleshooting some backup and restore errors
This appendix lists some error and informational messages that you can receive during a backup or restore, describes under what circumstances the errors might occur or the message might appear, and provides possible solutions or workarounds.
Find errors by viewing the ON-Bar activity log
The database server does not show errors in standard output (stdout) if an error occurs when you use onbar -b to back up storage spaces or onbar -r to restore storage spaces. Therefore, when you use onbar -b or onbar -r, you must check information in the ON-Bar activity log (bar_act_log). As ON-Bar backs up and restores data, it writes progress messages, warnings, and error messages to the bar_act.log.
