Arguments
backup-ID
Specify the backup ID of the backup data to be restored. A backup ID, which is used to uniquely
identify backup data, is registered in the backup catalog during backup. To check a backup ID,
execute the drmsqlcat command.
-resync
Specify this option to restore the data from the secondary volume to the primary volume by
resynchronizing the volumes. The contents of the primary volume become the same as the backup
data in the secondary volume.
When you execute the command with this option, stop the service of any program viewing the
Windows performance registry.
-force
Specify this option to restore the data from the secondary volume to the primary volume by forcibly
resynchronizing the volumes.
With this option, forced resynchronization is performed if the copy group name of the primary volume
obtained when backup processing was performed on the database server matches the information
on the database server, even though the LDEV and SERIAL numbers do not match the LDEV and SERIAL
numbers when backup processing was performed.
Specify this option only if a restoration by resynchronization could not be performed with the -resync
option, such as when the LDEV number changes when the volume is replaced. If this option is specified
during a normal restoration, data might be corrupted.
-undo
Specifies that the database should be restored in standby mode. When this option is specified, the
database can be used as read-only after the restoration has finished. Temporary files will be created
for each database in the undo file storage directory registered by the drmsqlinit command. If the
UNDO file storage directory has not been set using the drmsqlinit command, an error message
