If I understood well DAOS restores, one has to restore the nsf first, then get the list of missing nlos from a tell daosmgr command and finally restoring those nlos. Isn’t that something that could/should be automated by a good backup&restore program like TSM/NetBackup/CommVault ?Would the backup API allows such operations ?

Hi,
Even we are expecting something like this. Can manual intervention be avoided during restore. Can we automate generation of a file which contains missing NLO’s for the database(s).
-
Is it possible to get the list of missing NLO’s for a particular database from an executable?
-
Is it possible to get the list of missing NLO’s for a list of nsf files in one command.
a) from any command on server console
b) from executable.
We know that we can run nserver.exe -d “tell daosmgr listlno.txt missing dbname.nsf” , in a batch command from our application and generate this file. But this is dirty implementation, as error returning and reliablity is questionable. Also we will have to run it for each and every database, so if user is restoring 50 dbs then we will have to execute it 50 times.
Can you suggest any ways to automate it?
Thanks,
