Veritas NetBackup™ for SAP Administrator's Guide

sort_restore_type image (default)

Specifies that backint create groups of files based on their backup image IDs and create a job for each group. This behavior is the default if the sort_restore_type parameter is not set in the intSID.utl file.

For example, if nine files were backed up by two bpbackup jobs, each file is associated with one of two backup image IDs. If all nine files are restored, the NetBackup for SAP backint interface creates the two jobs, one job for each image. The files are grouped the way they were backed up. The following are examples of a restore.

Note:

Restore creates a separate job for raw partition files. The partition files cannot be grouped with regular files.
