Veritas FlashSnap Point-In-Time Copy Solutions 5.0.1 Administrators Guide, HP-UX 11i v3, First Edition, November 2009
■ For a Sybase ASE database, if you specified the for external dump clause
when you quiesced the database, use the following isql command as the
database administrator to dump the transaction log for the database:
dump transaction to dump_device with standby_access
Then copy the dumped transaction log to the appropriate replica database
directory.

As the database administrator, start the new database:
■ For an Oracle database, use a script such as that shown in the example.
See “Script to complete, recover and start a replica Oracle database”
on page 93.
■ For a Sybase ASE database, use a script such as that shown in the example.
See “Script to start a replica Sybase ASE database” on page 94.
If you are using the warm standby method, specify the -q option to the
dataserver command. Use the following isql commands to load the dump
of the transaction log and put the database online:
load transaction from dump_device with standby_access
online database database_name for standby_access
If you are not using the warm standby method, use the following isql
command to recover the database, roll back any uncommitted transactions
to the time that the quiesce command was issued, and put the database
online:
online database database_name
When you want to resynchronize a snapshot with the primary database,
shut down the replica database, unmount the snapshot volume, and go
back to step 3 to refresh the contents of the snapshot from the original
volume.
Creating an off-host replica database
Figure 5-2 shows an example where the primary database volumes to be backed
up, dbase_vol and dbase_logs, are configured on disks attached to controllers
c1 and c2, and the snapshots are to be created on disks attached to controllers c3
and c4.
There is no requirement for the OHP host to have access to the disks that contain
the primary database volumes.
