Question about Time Finder Restore
Hi
After the BCV restoration, what steps do i need to follow
Do i need to import all volume groups in the server ?
Do i need to mount all mount points in the server ?
Do i need to start all applications in the server ?
I have a question to restore data from Time Finder.
Let me explain you my Production environment
I have the following:
Solaris server V880 running Solaris 8 Operating System
Veritas Volumen Manager 5.1 for manage the volumes
A time finder Mirror group with 103 devs
DMX 4 1500
I run my mirror every day at 7PM, the question here is:
How can i restore my last BCV?
Do i need to stop all applications in the server before the BCV restoration?
Do i need to umount all mount points in the server before the BCV restoration ?
Do i need to export all volume groups in the server before the BCV restoration ?
If you have any other informacion about that I'll appreciate
Regards

Also is the restore partial/full? Do you need to restore entire data from BCV?
if you want to disk level sync from BCV then the target devices need to be in stopapp&unmount&export staet

But i would recommend test/verify this process on a test group before you do the over write production.
All i can say is "symmir restore" funciton should do this.

Just remember that when you restore, the content of STD devices will change. Thus it's better if you
1) stop application
2) unmount filesystems
3) deport DGs
This will clean any table/map/bitmap/detail from host memory.
Now that the host isn't using the devices you can issue the restore
Check the process and as soon as the restore completes, you can
1) import DGs
2) mount filesystems
3) start application
I hope it's what you are trying to find.
