Step 1

Create a database session to the database.

dbmcli -u <database_user>,<database_password> -d <database_name>

e.g. In our case database name is MAXDB.


C:\Program Files\sdb\globalprograms\pgm>dbmcli.exe -u dbadmin,Password1 -d MAXDB

dbmcli.exe on MAXDB>


Step 2

Create a backup template. The format to follow will be;

backup_template_create <backup_template> to <backup_destination> <backup_content>


dbmcli on DB1> backup_template_create d1 to FILE C:\MaxDB\Backup\DAT0001 CONTENT DATA


Step 3

If you are also restoring logs then create a template for the log too.

dbmcli on DB1> backup_template_create l1 to FILE C:\MaxDB\Backup\LOG CONTENT LOG


Step 4

Copy the recovered files to the location of the templates.

e.g. In our case we have copied the mediumRestore data file to the DATA CONTENT location and renamed it to DAT0001

Check if the backup can be accessed and that data reading will work. A service session is requires as follows;

dbmcli on DB1> db_admin dbmcli on DB1> service_connect dbmcli on DB1> recover_check <backup_template> <backup_type>
