21.6.2 Example 2: Recovering specified RDAREAs to the point at which a backup was made

This example recovers user RDAREAs (rdarea01 and rdarea02) to the point at which a backup was made. In addition to these RDAREAs, you must also recover all related RDAREAs at the same time. For details about the related RDAREAs, see 6.3 RDAREAs to be backed up together.

Organization of this subsection: (1) Identify the RDAREAs related to the RDAREAs to be recovered; (2) Use the pdclose command to close RDAREAs in error shutdown status; (3) Use another product's facility to recover all RDAREAs; (4) Use the pdrels command to open recovered RDAREAs by releasing their error shutdown status

(1) Identify the RDAREAs related to the RDAREAs to be recovered

Perform this operation only on user RDAREAs and user LOB RDAREAs (the original RDAREAs of user RDAREAs and the original RDAREAs of user LOB RDAREAs if the inner replica facility is used). If a row-partitioned table is defined, execute the pdrdrefls command with the -t option to identify the RDAREAs comprising the row-partitioned table.

If you need to recover more RDAREAs than the following example shows, add their names following the -r option.

 
pdrdrefls -k chk -e org -c ref
-r rdarea01,rdarea02

(2) Use the pdclose command to close RDAREAs in error shutdown status

 
pdclose -r rdarea01,rdarea02

(3) Use another product's facility to recover all RDAREAs

Use another product's restore facility to recover the HiRDB file system area that comprises the RDAREAs (rdarea01, rdarea02).

(4) Use the pdrels command to open recovered RDAREAs by releasing their error shutdown status

 
pdrels -r rdarea01,rdarea02 -o
