NetVault Plug-in for Domino 12.4 - User Guide

Selecting data for a restore

1
In the Navigation pane, click Create Restore Job.
2
To filter the items displayed in the saveset table, click Filter .
The table displays the saveset name (job title and saveset ID), creation date and time, size, and catalog status. By default, the list is sorted by creation date.
3
In the saveset table, select the applicable saveset.
When you select a saveset, the following details are displayed in the Saveset Information area: Job ID, job title, server name, client name, plug-in name, saveset date and time, retirement setting, Incremental Backup or not, Archive or not, saveset size, and snapshot-based backup or not.
4
Click Restore.
5
On the Create Selection Set page, select the data that you want to restore.
 
* 
TIP: If you configured the plug-in to use a partitioned server, the selection tree includes a node for the applicable partition.
•
Initialization File: To restore “notes.ini,” select this node.
•
Identification Files: To restore all the “*.id” files included in the backup, such as “server.id” and “cert.id,” select this node. For a selective restore, open this node and select the individual files.
•
Mail Configuration File: To restore the “mail.box” file, select this node.
•
Mail Databases: To restore the “log.nsf” and “names.nsf” database files, select this node.
 
* 
IMPORTANT: To restore the “log.nsf” database file, restore it to a different directory unless you are performing a disaster recovery and the Domino Server has not created the file yet.
•
Template Files: To restore all the Template Files, select this node. For a selective restore, open the parent node, and select the target files.
•
Server Databases: To restore all the server databases, select this node. For a selective restore, open the parent node, and select the target databases.
 
* 
IMPORTANT: Depending on the version and Fix Pack (FP) level of your Domino Server, recovery of server-database files might fail during a cold restore. You can work around this issue by restoring the files to a different directory. For more information, see Renaming and relocating data during restore and Troubleshooting.
•
Users MailBox: To restore all the mailboxes, select this node. For a selective restore, open the parent node, and select the target mailboxes.
•
Domino Attachment and Object Service (DAOS): To restore all the items in the DAOS repository, select this node.
 
* 
IMPORTANT: If you modified the “notes.ini” file to change the DAOS_LOAD and DAOS_Enable settings from 1 to 0 (DAOS_LOAD=0 and DAOS_Enable=0) to facilitate cold restores and you must restore the “notes.ini” file, restore it separately, after you have restored all other items. This sequence prevents loss of the edits that facilitate cold restores when DAOS is configured on the Domino Server.

Setting restore options

This step involves the steps outlined in the following topics:

•
Configuring Roll-Forward Recovery options
•
Configuring PITR options
•
Configuring Destination options
•
Configuring DAOS restore options

Configuring Roll-Forward Recovery options

On the Create Selection Set page, click Edit Plugin Options, and configure the following parameters on the Rollforward tab:

•
Under Recovery and Rollforward, configure the following parameters:
•
Last Backup Set: To recover the database in the following scenarios, select this check box:
•
When you are restoring only a Full Backup.
•
When you are restoring the last Incremental Backup in the backup sequence.
The maximum number of logged databases that the plug-in can recover ranges from 800 to 5,000 depending on the installation path. If the maximum is exceeded, NetVault Backup displays a message that indicates which databases were excluded and thus require a separate roll-forward recovery.
•
Do Not Perform Recovery: Select this check box if you want to omit replay of the archive logs.
•
Soft Recovery: To replay the Current Logs on the Domino Server to recover a database to the most recent state, leave this option selected. You can use this option whether the Domino Server is offline or online.
•
Hard Recovery: To recover only the Transaction Logs in the last saveset without recovering the Current Logs, select this option. This option is useful if the Current Logs and the Control File “nlogctrl.lfh” are damaged or missing. You can select this option only when the Domino Server is offline.
•
Under Assign New DB-IID, configure the following parameters:
•
Do not give new DB-IID: Select this option if you do not want to assign a new DB‑IID to the recovered databases.
•
Give new DB-IID to databases: Select this option if you want to assign a new DB‑IID to the recovered databases. Using a new DB‑IID lets you access the original database if it exists. Because the recovered version is a new instance, Quest recommends that you perform a backup of the new instance after the recovery.
When you select this option, the Assign New Replica ID check box becomes available; it only works with the Give new DB-IID to databases option. If you want to assign a new Replica ID to the recovered databases, select this check box; otherwise, verify that the check box is cleared.
 
* 
IMPORTANT: After completion of a recovery in which the DB-IID is changed, the Transaction Logs that apply changes to the database with the previous DB-IID cannot identify the database as the one with transactions that must be applied.
•
New DB-IID only if Necessary: To assign a new DB‑IID to a database only if a different instance of the same database is online, select this option. This issue might occur if you restore to a different directory, or if the database was backed up through a Domino Database Link.

Configuring PITR options

To perform a PITR, click the Point In Time Recovery tab, select the Apply Point In Time Recovery up to check box, and configure the specific point in the Day and Hour boxes:

•
Day: Enter or select the day up to which the backed-up data should be recovered. The format for specifying the day is dd:mm:yyyy.
•
Hour: Enter or select the hour up to which the backed-up data should be recovered. The format for specifying the hour is hh:mm:ss.
 
* 
IMPORTANT: If you use the PITR option, a new DB‑IID is automatically assigned, and IBM or HCL Notes ignores the settings made in the Assign New DB‑IID section.
