Configuring redirected restores

In a SAP HANA multiple-host system, recover data of one host by another host by following these instructions:

To allow a host to redirect a restore:

  1. On the master server, create an altnames file for the host that you want to have permissions to perform redirected restores.

    For example, to give HostB permissions to restore from another host, create the following file:

    • On Windows

      install_path\NetBackup\db\altnames\HostB

    • On UNIX

      /usr/openv/netbackup/db/altnames/HostB

  2. In the altnames file, add the names of the client(s) whose files the requesting client wants to restore.

    For example, if you want HostB to have permissions to redirect restores from HostA, add HostA to the HostB file.
