Use

While restoring a backup created using a backup template for multiple parallel data carriers, the data was imported in full from one of the data carriers involved. The system prompts you to specify a succeeding data carrier. If you do not do this, but instead execute the DBM command recover_ignore, the system then works only with the remaining space on the parallel data carriers.

You would use this DBM command in the following situation, for example: you want to import a backup that was created using three tape drives in parallel and consists of a total of 5 tapes. You start importing the data using three tape drives so that tapes 1-3 are imported in parallel. After a while, the data on the tape in tape drive 1 has been completely imported. The import from drives 2 and 3 is ongoing. The system prompts you to place the next tape in tape drive 1. If you now enter recover_ignore, the import continues only with tape drives 2 and 3. As soon as the next tape drive (e.g. tape drive 3) prompts you to insert another data carrier, use recover_replace to specify a succeeding data carrier and import tape 4. When you are asked to do so by tape drive 2, also use recover_replace to specify a succeeding data carrier and import tape 5. Thereafter all 5 backup tapes will have been imported.

The reply to this DBM command displays information about the import of the backup. Pay particular attention to the message number displayed in the Returncode field.

However, you get the reply only once the backup has been imported completely, or if the backup was interrupted. This command may therefore take a long time to execute.

Prerequisites

      You have the server authorization Backup.

      You have started recovering a database instance by importing data from several data carriers in parallel (see: recover_start) and are still in the same database session. The operation was interrupted because the system is requesting a succeeding data carrier for one of the parallel data carriers.
You do not want to specify another succeeding data carrier here and only want the remaining data carriers to continue importing.
