7.2.1 Res<strong>to</strong>ring The <strong>System</strong> Disk<br />

To res<strong>to</strong>re your system disk you need <strong>to</strong> use Standalone BACKUP.<br />

Preparing For Disaster Recovery<br />

7.2 Prolog and Epilog Procedure<br />

• For Alpha systems, see the section "Backing Up the <strong>System</strong> Disk" in the Appendix of the<br />

“Alpha Upgrade and Installation Manual” in the <strong>OpenVMS</strong> Documentation.<br />

• For VAX systems see the chapter “Using BACKUP” in the “<strong>System</strong> Manager’s Manual” in<br />

the <strong>OpenVMS</strong> Documentation.<br />

Use the in<strong>for</strong>mation from the ABS save log <strong>to</strong> specify the parameters <strong>for</strong> the BACKUP command<br />

line:<br />

a. /LABEL=(volume_1,volume_2,...volume_n) - the volume IDs of the tapes being used<br />

b. The saveset name<br />

c. The target disk<br />

d. /IMAGE/NOASSIST qualifiers<br />

Example 7–5 BACKUP Command <strong>to</strong> Res<strong>to</strong>re the <strong>System</strong> Disk<br />

$ BACKUP/IMAGE MKA500:24DEC20012359590./LABEL=(GKF011,GKF022) -<br />

_$DGA100:/NOASSIST<br />

This res<strong>to</strong>res an image of your system disk in saveset “24DEC20012359590.” on tape volumes<br />

“GKF011” and “GKF022” <strong>to</strong> disk device “DGA100”.<br />

After a successful res<strong>to</strong>re, boot from your res<strong>to</strong>red system disk. If your system does not boot all<br />

the way through you may have <strong>to</strong> disable the execution of your “SYSTARTUP_VMS.COM”<br />

command procedure by using a conversational boot and renaming the file.<br />

7.2.2 Res<strong>to</strong>ring Remaining Savesets<br />

Once your system is up-and-running you can res<strong>to</strong>re other save sets necessary <strong>to</strong> complete the<br />

disaster recovery: Make sure that all of these components or products are shut down be<strong>for</strong>e you<br />

res<strong>to</strong>re the individual files. Use the following res<strong>to</strong>re order:<br />

1. First, any other product required by ABS, such as your 3rd party scheduler data if it has<br />

been saved separately. You should startup the component or product just res<strong>to</strong>red.<br />

2. Res<strong>to</strong>re MDMS$ROOT if it has been saved separately. After the res<strong>to</strong>re rename the<br />

“MDMS$*_DB.DAT_COPY” files <strong>to</strong> “*.DAT”. You can startup MDMS now.<br />

3. Res<strong>to</strong>re ABS$ROOT if it has been saved separately. Res<strong>to</strong>re any other save used <strong>to</strong> save the<br />

catalog files which are located outside of ABS$ROOT. After the res<strong>to</strong>re you can startup<br />

ABS.<br />

Use the in<strong>for</strong>mation from the ABS save log <strong>to</strong> specify the parameters <strong>for</strong> the BACKUP command<br />

lines:<br />

a. /LABEL=(volume_1,volume_2,...volume_n) - the volume IDs of the tapes being used<br />

b. The saveset name<br />

c. The target disk<br />

d. /IMAGE/NOASSIST qualifiers<br />
