I have sent the script file I use with the exact commands.  You have
verified yourself they are correct, as they are not even documented for
7.5.0.

Can someone else at SAP / MySQL help with this?

I notice you aren't even testing with the production release!  7.5.0.5 is
the version I reported the problem against, but your sample below shows
7.5.0.9 - is it not possible that you have already fixed this bug?  Do you
not see your "Build 009" does not match the version I reported the bug
against?  And even the MySQL web site only shows "build 008" in alpha form.

Hi Stephen,

[snip]

The correct example would look like this and it shows the extended
initialization coupled with data recovery.

[snip]
2003-12-23 10:32:42 3FE80BB70001 0006   TAP KERNEL VERSION.... Kernel
7.5.0    Build 009-003-059-738
[snip]

Please verify that the correct commands are used.

So you cannot find your data until it is really recovered.

Kind regards
Uwe

Betreff: RE: MaxDB 7.5.0.5 Restore problems - no data after restore

I responded to Uwe in a private thread with copies of my entire wrk
directory.  However, I want to correct the outdated subject on this public
post.  At first I had a problem with logs due to syntax changes in 7.5.  Got
past that.  The current issue now is more with the restore not working (no
data), despite no syntax errors.

To review.  We are backing up with these commands on Windows 2000 Service
Pack 4:

dbmcli -n localhost -d MYDB1 -u DBM,** medium_put completeF
c:\MaxDB-servermy1-bk000.data FILE DATA 0 8 YES
dbmcli -n localhost -d MYDB1 -u DBM,** -uUTL -c backup_start completeF
MIGRATION

Then restoring with this script on a Windows XP Service Pack 1 system:

  http://www.IPCoast.com/MaxDB-Restore02.txt

The script runs without error - but after completion the 'info state' shows
only 2MB of data when the restore file and source database is 9GB.  The data
is also not there when tests are performed with client SELECT.

The backup source is a SAPDB server that started life as 7.4 and was
upgraded to MaxDB 7.5 and is working perfectly fine otherwise.  Of course,
we currently have no way to recover this MaxDB 7.5 database if it corrupts
or crashes - so we are anxious to get attention on this matter.  Good news
is that we run parallel hosting sites and only upgraded one site to MaxDB
7.5.  We are still replicating INSERT/UPDATE statements with our second site
running SAPDB 7.4 and backup/restore works fine on SAPDB 7.4 server.

Hello Stephen,

could you please send me the dbm.utl and dbm.knl and dbm.prt from your
restored instance, because the output.txt and knldiag
does not give any usefull hint in this case.
I need the information what was really restored to your database.

Uwe

Uwe (and anyone else who can help),

I foolishly assumed that because I got OK on all steps and ONLINE status..
that the data was there.  However, this weekend I sat down to do some work
with the data and it is missing!  None of my tables are actually restored,
and 'info state' shows only 2MB of consumed pages where the backup  source
datbase and backup file is 9GB!

This is from MaxDB 7.5.0.5 to 7.5.0.5 on Windows 2000 to Windows XP
Professional. Can you review my restoration steps again and see if there is
some error?

dbmcli -n localhost -d MYDB1 -u DBM,** medium_put completeF
c:\MaxDB-servermy1-bk000.data FILE DATA 0 8 YES
dbmcli -n localhost -d MYDB1 -u DBM,** -uUTL -c backup_start completeF
MIGRATION

Script I am using for restore:

  http://www.ipcoast.com/MaxDB-Restore02.txt

I am ONLY using the data file, I am not concerned with the LOG files.  I
just need a snapshot.

Thankfully we left one of our systems at 7.4.3.027 and are replicating our
INSERT/UPDATE statements.  I am not having problems with 7.4.3.027 to
7.4.3.027 backup and restore.

Betreff: RE: MaxDB 7.5.0.5 Restore problems - log file not created

Hello Uwe,

I tried doing it in several places, not making progress.  Getting various
errors.  Including the following when I put it after db_start:

dbmcli on TEST4>ERR
-24988,ERR_SQL: sql error
-101,Message not available

Can you pretty please review my script and tell me where to insert
db_activate with RECOVER option?

http://www.IPCoast.com/MaxDB-Restore01.txt

Any other things you notice missing / incorrect in my script?  I seem to
have the worst luck with syntax changes to the restore process.

Thank you.

  Stephen Gutknecht
