- 3 Support and other resources
- Index
• YES (normal termination)
• NO (termination with an error)
• CANCEL (operation canceled)
After restoration with Backup Exec finishes, enter the correct keyword.
Before executing the drmmediarestore command, confirm the following:
• The backup management product has been linked.
• The drmmount command has been executed with a backup ID specified and the secondary volume
to be backed up has been mounted.
• The secondary volume is not in the mirror status.
If an error occurs during execution of the drmmediarestore command, check the contents of the
trace log of the backup management product that is provided by Application Agent. Then, take action
for the error according to what was output to the log.
For NetBackup
The trace log is output to the following file:
Application-Agent-installation-directory\DRM\log\drm_nbu_restore.log
For Backup Exec
Application Agent does not provide trace logs for Backup Exec. If an error occurred, check the
log provided by Backup Exec, or use the GUI to check the status, and then take appropriate action.
Take the command retry period into consideration when you execute more than one
drmmediarestore command concurrently. For details about the settings, see notes on command
execution in the HP XP7 Replication Manager Application Agent CLI User Guide.
Arguments
backup-ID
Specify the backup ID of the backup data to be restored. A backup ID uniquely identifies backup
data and is registered in the backup catalog during backup. To check backup IDs, execute the
drmtapecat command.
When using the drmmediarestore command, make sure that you specify the backup ID for use
with the drmmount command and perform the mount beforehand. If you use the drmmount command
to mount with a copy group name specified, you cannot use the drmmediarestore command.
-raw
Indicates that the backup data specified by the backup ID has been backed up as a raw device with
the -raw option specified. Even if you do not specify this option, if the -raw option is specified at the
time of the backup, the command restores the data normally as though this option was specified.
However, if the -raw option is not specified at the time of the backup, and this option is specified in
an attempt to restore the data from the backup, then a command error occurs and a message is output.
You can specify this option for NetBackup only.
-bup_env configuration-definition-file-name
Specify this option to specify a start parameter for the user-defined configuration definition file, when
either backup operations are performed to tape, or restore operations are performed from tape.
If you omit this option, the default configuration definition file is used. So, you need to create the
default configuration definition file in advance.
