Performing restores for SQLite backups

Prerequisites

Before you run a restore, you must meet the following prerequisites:

  • Ensure that versions of the SQLite agent and NetBackup are same. If you upgrade NetBackup to newer version, then you must upgrade the agent version also.

  • Ensure that the user has administrator (Windows) or root (Linux) access.

  • (LVM users) Ensure that data logs and the logs directory reside on the logical volume.

  • Set the following parameters in the nbsqlite.conf file:

    • CLIENT_NAME

    • DB_BACKUP_ID

    • TARGET_DIRECTORY

    • MASTER_SERVER_NAME

To restore backup

  1. Configure the parameters in the nbsqlite.conf file, or provide them on the command line.
  2. Run the following command:

    nbsqlite -o restore -S master_server_name -t target_directory [-id db_backup_image_name][-C client_name]
