Restoring with External Backup Tools 

The Database Manager GUI supports the use of the following external backup tools for restores:

If you want to use an external backup tool that is not included on this list, please contact Support.

Using the backup tools

Start the restore operation from the Database manager GUI. The naming conventions for external backup media enable the program to recognize the external backup tool and start it.

Procedure

When you use an external backup tool to restore backups, the external backup IDs of the required backups are automatically defined by the Database Manager GUI, displayed so that the user can check them, and used by the DBMGUI during the restore process. The user does not need to explicitly determine or enter the external backup IDs, because the DBMGUI determines the required information itself.

The number of media in a group of parallel backup media must correspond to the number of media used to create the backup.

Proceed as described in
