Restoring User Files
9. Restore any other files backed up in Step 2.
10. Start the OSS Monitor. If necessary, use an OBEY file for the kernel subsystem
SCF interface to restore its configuration in the persistence monitor and OBEY files
or RESTORE to restore the configuration of the OSS environment.
11. Use RESTORE to restore the storage-pool files. The source and target system
DEVICELABEL values must match.
12. Restore the remainder of the OSS environment as described in Restoring NonStop
SQL/MP Programs Using Backup/Restore Utilities (T9074) on page 6-24 and
Restoring Security Data Used For File Access on page 6-25.
13. Start all filesets.

To restore files using the pax utility, the fileset to be restored must first be configured
and started using the OSS Monitor.
Restoring NonStop SQL/MP Programs Using
Backup/Restore Utilities (T9074)
When an OSS fileset is lost, there are orphan entries in surviving SQL/MP
PROGRAMS and USAGES tables. These entries are harmless.
If the OSS fileset is recovered using volume mode RESTORE and the original SQL
catalog exists, the orphaned entries again match existing, valid SQL programs. If the
OSS fileset is not recovered using volume mode RESTORE, then these SQL objects
must be SQL-compiled to reregister them in the PROGRAMS and USAGES table; the
orphaned entries remain in the table.
