Back Up an IDS Database
IDS Status: Online
CA ARCserve Backup Option: Salvage Logs
ON-Bar Option: -s
Description: Backs up all logical logs that reside on the disk
IDS Status: Offline
Note: By default, the agent performs a Level 0 backup.
Important! A full offline restore always attempts to salvage logical logs
before restoring the root dbspace. If the salvage fails, the restore
continues; however, transactions that cannot be salvaged are lost.
Therefore, it is important that you keep copies of logical log backups until
you are sure that you do not need them to complement a restore from a
backup.
6. Select the media Device Group and the media for the backup job from the
