14.9 Restoring and reinstantiating a 5620 SAM database

You can restore a 5620 SAM database using a backup copy.

In a redundant 5620 SAM system, you must perform one or both of the following to

regain 5620 SAM database function and redundancy, depending on the failure type.

• Restore the primary 5620 SAM database.

• Reinstantiate the standby 5620 SAM database.

Both operations are required after a primary database failure. After a standby

database failure, no restore operation is required, but you must reinstantiate the

primary database on the standby database station to restore redundancy. You can use

the 5620 SAM client GUI or a CLI script to reinstantiate a database.

See Procedure 14-14 for information about restoring a standalone 5620 SAM

database. See Procedure 14-15 for information about restoring a redundant

5620 SAM database. See Procedures 14-16 and 14-17 for information about

reinstantiating a primary 5620 SAM database on a standby database station.

Note 1 — The station to which you restore a 5620 SAM database

needs the same OS as the station from which the backup is obtained,

or the restore fails.

Note 2 — Before you perform a 5620 SAM database restore

operation, you must shut down the databases and main servers in the

5620 SAM system. Contact Alcatel-Lucent technical support before

you attempt to restore a 5620 SAM database.

Note 1 — In a redundant 5620 SAM system, you can restore a

5620 SAM database backup only on a primary database station. To

restore a database backup on a station other than the primary station,

you must do the following on the station before you attempt the

restore:

• Uninstall the 5620 SAM database, if it is installed.

• Install a primary database on the station.

Note 2 — In a redundant 5620 SAM system, you can reinstantiate a

database only on a standby database station. To reinstantiate a

database on a station other than the standby station, you must do the

following on the station before you attempt the reinstantiation:

• Uninstall the 5620 SAM database, if it is installed.

• Install a standby database on the station.
