Hi Christian, the error with "db_activate" command is a problem of the current DBMGui version. The responsible developer told me that a bug fix will be available soon.
Error code -111 "Incompatible incremental backup" means that the hostfile used for the recovery is not the right one! Did you start your backup in 7.3 in db mode cold and did you first execute "dbmcli -d ... -u ... util_execute migrate" ?

Before this step we tried to test the migration procedure but without any luck. Following steps were be done: -installation of sapdb 7.4.3.31 on a WinXP-PC & Sapdb Gui (second edition) -backup (recovery mode) from the running production DB -adding a medium with the same name one the new sapdb -starting installation wizard and adding a new instance with the same parameters as the "old one" -at the end of the instance installation we use the recovery mode -when recovery start we become the following error (-24977 unknown command "db-activate" [db_activate RECOVER "Filename" DATA]) -if we choose at the end of the instance installation "start up instance" and perform the recovery later, we get another error (-111 Incompatible incremental backup) We used the same procedure several times before with the Version 7.3.xx. Were is our fault? :-) Thanks for help and advices.
