Recovering Omniback

  1. Update licence by editing /var/opt/ifor/nodelock

  2. Update tape device to be used for restore

    1. omnidownload -device dev_name > /tmp/dev_name
    2. vi /tmp/dev_name updating as required e.g. device file
    3. omniupload -modify dev_name -file /tmp/dev_name

  3. Insert tape into device and get session details via:

    omnilist -device dev_name -monitor

  4. Note the following: Medium ID, label, diskagent ID and object name.

  5. Restore into temporary area:

    omnir -omnidb object_name label -medium medium_ID -id diskagent_id -device device_name -into /target_file

    e.g. omnir -omnidb frog.intronet.com:/ ob_ov_10 -medium 9if5aed0:327504d7:2758:001 -id 920617480 -device dlt_1 -into /var/tmp/omnitmp

  6. Copy from temporary area into database (stopping omniback first), e.g.

    1. /opt/omni/sbin/omnisv.sh stop
    2. cd /var/tmp/omnitmp/var/opt/omni/db
    3. cp -r * /var/opt/omni/db
    4. cd /var/tmp/omnitmp/etc/opt/omni
    5. cp -r * /etc/opt/omni
    6. omnisv.sh start
