Chapter 9

• On UNIX:

/opt/omni/sbin/omnisv -start

If the IDB is installed on MC/ServiceGuard, run the

cmrunpkg

command on the active node to start the Data Protector

package.

Creating an Additional Copy of the IDB Recovery File

Creating an additional copy of the IDB recovery file prevents you from
losing important data for IDB recovery.

Use the following steps to make another copy of the IDB recovery file:

1. Stop all backups and other Data Protector activities and run the

omnisv -stop

command to stop the Data Protector services.

• On Windows:

\bin\omnisv -stop

• On UNIX:

/opt/omni/sbin/omnisv -stop

If the IDB is installed on MC/ServiceGuard, run the

cmhaltpkg

command on the active node to stop the Data Protector

package, where

is the name of the Data Protector cluster

package.

If the IDB is installed on Microsoft Cluster Server, take the

OBVS_VELOCIS

cluster group offline using the Cluster Administrator

utility on the active node.

2. Edit the global options file by setting the value for the

RecoveryIndexDir

variable: specify an additional location where

Data Protector makes a copy of the IDB recovery file,

obrindex.dat

.

It is recommended to specify a different physical disk.

3. Run the

omnisv -start

command (on UNIX, located in the

/opt/omni/sbin

directory) to start the Data Protector services.

• On Windows:

\bin\omnisv -start

• On UNIX:

/opt/omni/sbin/omnisv -start

If the IDB is installed on MC/ServiceGuard, run the

cmrunpkg

command on the active node to start the Data Protector

package.

If the IDB is installed on Microsoft Cluster Server, bring the

OBVS_VELOCIS

and

OBVS_MCRS

cluster groups online using the

Cluster Administrator utility.
