2. If VOLUME* files were not replicated, RESTORE them from the latest backup
of the BackPak installation sub-volume.
3. Recover the TMF and DSMTC catalogs using the procedures documented by
HP. Eventually use the BackPak Catalog Sync option for the DSM/TC catalog.
The BackPak environment is now ready to process all mount requests.
Recovery hints
• If tape load requests are rejected because TMF is not yet
operational:
- Change the BackPak audited VOLUME* files to NO AUDIT until
the NonStop system is fully operational
• If load requests are rejected because the timestamps in the BackPak
catalog and those in the volume timestamps do not match then:
- By using the BackPak UI, disable the timestamp checking on the
volumes that cannot be loaded.
- If this affects more than a few volumes, disable timestamp
checking at the Data Store level.
• If the BackPak catalog of virtual volumes does not contain entries for
volumes requested by RESTORE or RECOVER and no backup of the
catalog is available then:
- Configure a RESTRICTED Data Store and a corresponding Volume
Group and use the web application to create all the required
virtual volumes in that Data Store.
- Alternatively, if only a few virtual tape volumes are involved, use
the “Stand Alone Load” page of the user interface. The tab for
this page is available when the BackBox Sign-in page is
displayed.
