- 3 Support and other resources
- Index
• An invalid option is specified.
• The system cannot acquire information from the operation definition file linked to the operation
ID.
• A specified Application Agent command option cannot be specified as an extended command
option.
• The system fails to record a backup ID in the backup ID record file.
• A command executed inside the extended command encounters an error.
• The command fails to obtain the name of the directory where dictionary map files are stored.
Example
• In this example, the extended command is used to back up the system databases (master, model,
and msdb) to the secondary volume based on the settings specified in the operation definition file
operation01:
EX_DRM_SQL_BACKUP operation01 -system
EX_DRM_SQL_DEF_CHECK (Checks the contents of an operation definition file
and automatically creates a temporary directory)
Formats
To check the contents of an operation definition file for a database server by specifying an operation
ID:
EX_DRM_SQL_DEF_CHECK operation-ID -db
To check the contents of an operation definition file for a backup server by specifying an operation
ID:
EX_DRM_SQL_DEF_CHECK operation-ID -bk
To check the contents of an operation definition file for a database server by specifying a definition
file:
EX_DRM_SQL_DEF_CHECK -db -f definition-file-name
To check the contents of an operation definition file for a backup server by specifying a definition
file:
EX_DRM_SQL_DEF_CHECK -bk -f definition-file-name
Description
This extended command checks the contents of an operation definition file, and if no problem is found,
automatically creates a temporary directory that will be used by subsequent extended commands.
The definition file-checking tool must be re-executed in the following cases:
• The path to the directory where dictionary map files are stored is changed on the database server
• The directory path assigned to FTP_HOME_DIR is changed on the backup server
When checking the contents of an operation definition file, the extended command first checks whether
the file specified by the argument exists, and then checks the items in the operation definition file for
the following:
• An item and corresponding value have been specified.
