First-time Backup to the Remote Backup Server
First-time Backup to the Remote Backup Server
To back up the Sybase 12.5.0.1 Server to the remote backup server on the Sybase/HP
OpenView/NavisCore Server workstation the
first
time:
1.
Become the Sybase user by entering:
su - sybase
2.
Change to the
/opt/sybase
directory by entering:
cd /opt/sybase
3.
Create a backup directory by entering:
mkdir backup
Sybase backups to the remote backup server do not go to the backup directory.
This directory will contain the
sybck.out
log.
4.
Enter:
script /opt/sybase/backup/sybck.out
The script command saves output from the
dbcc checkdb
command (
step 6
) and
places it in the
sybck.out
file. In addition, the output goes to the screen.
5.
Initiate an
isql
session by entering:
isql -U sa -P <
SA password
> -S <
database server name
>
Note –
If you have a three-system configuration (HP OpenView/NavisCore
installed on a workstation, Sybase installed on another workstation, and remote
backup server installed on a third workstation), log on to the HP
OpenView/NavisCore workstation.
