Were you performing hot-catalog backups?
Here's a snip from the email I get after each catalog
backup (incremental or full), maybe this will set you
up?
=============================
Catalog
Recovery Procedure for the Loss of an Entire Catalog
You should create a detailed disaster
recovery plan to follow should it become
necessary to restore your
organization's data in the event of a disaster. A
checklist of required tasks can be a
tremendous tool in assisting associates in
triage. For example, after the
facility is safe for data to be restored, the
power and data infrastructure need to
be verified. When these tasks are
completed, the following scenarios
will help to quickly restore the NetBackup
environment, and in turn, restore
applications and data.
Disaster Recovery Procedure
using the DR Image File
In the event of a catastrophic
failure, use the following procedure to rebuild
the previous NetBackup
environment.
Note: If new hardware is required,
make sure that the devices contain drives
capable of reading the media and that
the drive controllers are capable of
mounting the drives.
1. Install NetBackup.
2. Configure the devices necessary to
read the media listed above.
3. Inventory the media.
4. Make sure that the master server
can access the attached DR image file.
Start the NetBackup Recovery Wizard
from the NetBackup Administration
Console. Or, start the wizard from a
command line by entering
bprecover -wizard.
Disaster Recovery Procedure without
the DR Image File
NOTE: ONLY ATTEMPT THIS AS A
LAST RESORT
If you do not have the attachment
included with this email, use the following
instructions to recover your
catalog:
1. Install NetBackup.
2. Configure the devices necessary to
read the media listed above.
3. Inventory the media.
4. Run:
bpimport -create_db_info [-server
name] -id PD1158
5. Go to the following directory to
find the DR image file
Hot-Catalog-Backup_1256122911_INCR:
<snip>
6. Delete the other files in the
directory.
7. Open
Hot-Catalog-Backup_1256122911_INCR file and find the BACKUP_ID
(for example: <snip>_1256122911).
8. Run:
bpimport [-server name]
-backupid <snip>_1256122911
9. Run:
bprestore -T -w [-L progress_log] -C
<snip> -t 35 -p Hot-Catalog-Backup
-X -s 1256122911 -e 1256122911 /
10. Run the BAR user interface to
restore the remaining image database
if the DR image is a result of an
incremental backup.
11. To recover the NetBackup
relational database, run:
bprecover -r -nbdb
12. Stop and Start
NetBackup
13. Configure the devices if any
device has changed since the last
backup.
14. To make sure the volume
information is updated, inventory the media
to update the NetBackup
database.
=============================
Our
Windows 6.5.3 master tanked at the worst possible time. We have a scaler i2000
with 10 lto-4 drives attached. I have read the instructions from veritas on
using bprecover a dozen times and cannot for the life of me figure out what
they are trying to say.
1.
Put
tape in drive (fine, which one?)
2.
Run
command bprecover –r –ALL –tpath device_path<tape drive>
?????
The
examples are garbage
Any
help?
