NAME nsrdaadmin – NetWorker Module for Databases and Applications (NMDA) scheduled
backup administrative program

SYNOPSIS nsrdaadmin -P [iq] -z configuration_file_path

DESCRIPTION The nsrdaadmin -P command is used to set the encrypted password that is required
for DB2, MySQL, Orchestrated Application Protection, SAP IQ, and Sybase backups.
The NetWorker Module for Databases and Applications Administration Guide pro-
vides more details on use of the nsrdaadmin command.

OPTIONS -P Sets the encrypted password in the specified NMDA configuration file. The iq
option specifies to set the encrypted password for the SAP IQ utility_db data-
base, which is used in a SAP IQ restore.
– z configuration_file_path
Specifies the full pathname of the NMDA configuration file.

Maintenance Commands nsrdaprobe ( 1m )

NAME nsrdaprobe – NMDA probe command for probe-based backups

SYNOPSIS nsrdaprobe -s server_name -c client_name -g group_name [ -t state ] [ -o cmd_options ]

save_set_name

cmd_options:

LOG_THRESHOLD= threshold_number
NSR_DEBUG_LEVEL= debug_level

For Lotus only:

LOTUS_NSF_FILE= database_filename

For Oracle only:

ORACLE_SERVICE= Oracle_Net_service_name
NSR_ORACLE_CONNECT_FILE= Oracle_RMAN_connect_filename

DESCRIPTION The nsrdaprobe program is used to automatically start an NMDA backup when a
specified number or size of logs has been generated since the previous probe-based
backup. The nsrdaprobe command should not be manually invoked, but should be
executed as part of a probe-based savegrp.
When the nsrdaprobe command is first invoked, it returns success and triggers a
probe-based savegrp backup. Once the backup has successfully completed, the transac-
tion log state is recorded in the State field of the corresponding NetWorker Probe
resource on the NetWorker server.
When the nsrdaprobe command is subsequently invoked, a comparison determines the
delta (difference) between the current number or size of the transaction logs and the
value recorded in the State field. If the delta is greater than or equal to the
threshold_number value, the backup proceeds.
Use of the nsrdaprobe program requires NetWorker server version 7.5 or later.

OPTIONS – c client_name
Specifies the NetWorker client name.
– g group_name
Specifies the NetWorker group name.
-o cmd_options
Specifies the command options set in the NetWorker Probe resource.
– s server_name
Specifies the NetWorker server name.
-t state Specifies the State attribute value for the NetWorker Probe resource.

EXAMPLES The following example shows a nsrdaprobe command for a DB2 probe-based backup,
including the arguments passed by the probe-based savegrp:

nsrdaprobe -s example.server.com -c example.client.com -g probegroup -o

NMDA 19.1 11
Maintenance Commands nsrdb2rlog ( 1m )

NAME nsrdb2rlog – NMDA command for recovery of DB2 database logs

SYNOPSIS nsrdb2rlog
[ – s server ] [ – c client ] [ – a database ] [ – d destination dir ] [ – C chain id ] [ – S
starting log ] [ – E ending log ] [ – N node number ] [ – F ] [ – I DB2 instance ] [ – z
configuration_file ]

DESCRIPTION nsrdb2rlog is a utility used to exercise EMC operations without the presence of a data-
base. Any computer with this utility can retrieve logs from a remote server and
recover them to a file instead of tape.

This utility allows the user to explicitly enter the log numbers they want to retrieve. It
gives the freedom to pick any existing logs available on the server. nsrinfo can be used
to find which logs reside on a server.

Example: nsrdb2rlog -s serverA -a sample -C 0 -d /db2/home/logs -S 10 -E 53

The above example recovers the logs numbered 10 to 53 with the chain ID 0 from the
database named sample on the server named serverA.

OPTIONS – a database
Specifies the name of the database which the logs belong to.
– C chain id
Specifies the chain ID of the logs to be used.

The number entered can range from 0 to 9999999.

Example: If the logs listed from nsrinfo are in the form

\C0000007_S0000004.LOG, then 7 is used as the chain ID to retrieve this chain
of logs.
– d destination dir
Specifies the directory that the log files should be recovered to. If the directory
does not exist then nsrdb2rlog will create it. If it is unable to create the direc-
tory, nsrdb2rlog will exit without recovering the logs.
– E ending log
Specifies the last log number to retrieve.

The number entered can range from 0 to 9999999.

Example: If the last log listed from nsrinfo is \C0000000_S0000150.LOG, then

150 is used as the last log value in order to retrieve all logs from the starting
log value to 150.
– N node number
The unique node number which identifies the database partition server. For
example, if the node was NODE0012, this value should be 12.

The default value is 0.

– S starting log
Specifies the first log number to retrieve.

The number entered can range from 0 to 9999999.

NMDA 19.1 12
Maintenance Commands nsrdb2rlog ( 1m )
Example: If the first log listed from nsrinfo is \C0000000_S0000004.LOG, then 4
is used as the first log value in order to retrieve all logs from 4 to the ending
log value.
– s server
Specifies the NetWorker server that backed up the database logs.
– c client
Specifies the NetWorker client on which the database logs were backed up.
–F Forces an overwrite if the recovery file already exists.
– I DB2 instance
Specifies the DB2 instance name of the backup that NMDA will use to retrieve
the logs. By default, NMDA retrieves the logs from the last backup regardless
of the instance name.

Example: If two DB2 instances use the same log name, nsrinfo might show
backups of the two logs with the same name

\C0000000_S0000100.LOG, objectinfo=DB2_1:1

\C0000000_S0000100.LOG, objectinfo=DB2_2:1

If you want to retrieve the log from the instance DB2_1, then run this com-
mand:

nsrdb2rlog -s serverA -a sample -C 0 -d /db2/home/logs -S 100 -E 100 -I

DB2_1
– z configuration_file
Specifies the full pathname of the NMDA configuration file.

save_set_name ]

DESCRIPTION nsroraadmin creates, updates and deletes resources from the resource file.

nsroraadmin can only be run by the root user.

The nsroraadmin creates and updates the resource file which is located at
/nsr/res/nwora.res on the host where NMDA is installed. An resource file is automati-
cally created during the NMDA installation process when NMDA is not installed to
the default location. The resource file created during installation only contains the
resources required for a regular (nonproxy) NMDA backup. The NMDA resource file
must be updated or created before performing proxy copy backups.

When nsroraadmin accesses the resource file for the first time, the resources required
for proxy copy backups are automatically added to the resource file. The added
resources are initialized with default values. If the file does not exist it is created and
the resources are initialized with default values.

There are two types of resources. The first type is the parameter resource. A parame-
ter resource is a single line that follows the NAME=VALUE format, where NAME is
the name of the parameter, and VALUE is what the parameter is set to.

The second type of resource is the SID resource. An SID resource contains all the
information nsroraclecat(1m) requires to synchronize an RMAN repository. An SID
resource contains several parameters which are described in the nsroraclecat(1m) man
page. Each parameter is represented by a keyword on the nsroraadmin command
line:
sid: NSR_ORACLE_SID

home: NSR_ORACLE_HOME

The list keyword causes nsroraadmin to list the contents of the
resource file. If ResourceName is specified only the parameter resource
that matches ResourceName will be printed. If SidName is specified only
the SID resource for the specified Oracle SID will be printed.
add
The add keyword causes nsroraadmin to add a new resource to the
resource file. If the ’sid’, ’home’ and ’connect’ keywords appears in
the parameters following add an NWORA SID resource is added to the
resource file. The ’tns’ and ’lib’ keywords are optional. If the parame-
ters following add do not contain the ’sid’, ’home’ and ’connect’ key-
words it is assumed that the parameters are the ResourceName and
ResourceValue of an parameter resource.
update
The update keyword causes nsroraadmin to change the value of the
specified resource. An parameter resource is specified with the same
semantics used by the add keyword. When updating SID resources
only the ’sid’ keyword is mandatory. The ’sid’ keyword specifies
which SID resource will be updated. The ’sid’ of an SID resource can-
not be changed. The ’home’, ’connect’, ’tns’ and ’lib’ keywords specify
which parameters will be updated. See the EXAMPLES section for
more information.
delete
The delete keyword causes nsroraadmin to delete an SID resource
from the resource file. The parameter after the delete keyword is the
name of the SID resource without the ’sid=’ prefix. Only SID resources
can be deleted.

EXAMPLES The following lists the entire contents of the resource file:

nsroraadmin -r list

The following lists the parameter resource NSR_ORACLECAT_MODE:

nsroraadmin -r list NSR_ORACLECAT_MODE

The following lists the SID parameter resource for the ORACLE_SID ’orcl815’:

nsroraadmin -r list orcl815

Maintenance Commands nsroraclecat ( 1m )

NAME nsroraclecat – NMDA command for synchronizing the Oracle RMAN repository with
NetWorker indexes

SYNOPSIS nsroraclecat

DESCRIPTION NMDA Oracle proxy copy backups are periodically pruned from the NetWorker
indexes when the snapshots they are stored on expire. The nsroraclecat binary keeps
RMAN repositories and the NetWorker indexes synchronized during the pruning
operations by removing the backup piece entries of the snapshot backup from the
RMAN repository. nsroraclecat is started automatically by nsrsnapck(1m) during
pruning. The RMAN repository entries are removed by forking an RMAN session.
The nsroraclecat binary should never be run manually.

The configuration of nsroraclecat is stored in the NMDA Oracle resource file which is
administered by nsroraadmin(1m). The following resources specify the nsroraclecat
configuration:
NSR_ORACLEAT_MODE
The default setting of NSR_ORACLECAT_MODE is ’undetermined’. When
NSR_ORACLECAT_MODE is set to ’undetermined’ NMDA will not perform
proxy copy backups. To use proxy copy backups the NMDA administrator
must set NSR_ORACLECAT_MODE to ’enabled’ or ’disabled’. If
NSR_ORACLECAT_MODE is set to ’disabled’ catalog synchronization will not
be performed.

NSR_REMOVE_ON_FAILURE
When NSR_REMOVE_ON_FAILURE is set to ’FALSE’ nsrsnapck(1m) will not
remove the NetWorker index entries for backup pieces that were not success-
fully synchronized.

NSR_ORACLECAT_LOG_FILE
Designates the location of the nsroraclecat operations log file. All operational
messages are written to this file. If NSR_ORACLECAT_LOG_FILE is not set
the operations messages go to the default log file
/nsr/applogs/nsroraclecat.log.

NSR_ORACLECAT_DEBUG_FILE
Designates the location of the nsroraclecat debug log file. All debugging mes-
sages are written to this file. If NSR_ORACLECAT_DEBUG_FILE is not set no
debug logging is done.

An SID resource must be configured for each Oracle database that has an RMAN repo-
sitory that will be synchronized. An SID resource has the following parameters:
NSR_ORACLE_CONNECT_FILE
Specifies the location of the file that contains the connection strings for the
RMAN repository.

NSR_ORACLE_HOME
The ORACLE_HOME of the Oracle Server installation. It is used to locate the
copy of RMAN that is used to prune the RMAN repository entries.

NMDA 19.1 27
Maintenance Commands nsroraclecat ( 1m )
NSR_ORACLE_LIB_PATH
Some Oracle Server installations require the system shared library path to be
set when using NMDA. The name of the environment variable used to set the
shared library path varies from system to system (It is LD_LIBRARY_PATH on
Solaris and HP-UX 64-bit, SHLIB_PATH on HP-UX 32 bit, LIBPATH on AIX,
etc). NSR_ORACLE_LIB_PATH must be set to the value of the shared library
path environment variable. If Oracle Server installation does not require the
shared library path NSR_ORACLE_LIB_PATH does not have to be set.

NSR_ORACLE_SID
The ORACLE_SID of the Oracle database instance that performed the proxy
copy backup. NMDA caches the ORACLE_SID in the NetWorker online
indexes when NMDA Oracle proxy copy backups are performed. The cached
copy of the ORACLE_SID is then used by nsroraclecat as a key to locate the
required SID resource during catalog synchronizations.

NSR_ORACLE_TNS_ADMIN
The location of the Oracle Net configuration files required by the Oracle Sever
installation whose RMAN will perform the catalog synchronization. If the
Oracle Net configuration files are in the default location
NSR_ORACLE_TNS_ADMIN does not have to be set.

FILES /nsr/applogs/nsroraclecat.log The default nsroraclecat log file.

Maintenance Commands nsrorainfo ( 1m )

NAME nsrorainfo – NMDA command that provides either of the following:

1) Information about the NetWorker volumes required for a restore, or
2) Information about a backup of Oracle disk backups, such as the list of database files,
to facilitate the reporting on the backups.

SYNOPSIS nsrorainfo [ – s server ] [ – c client ] [ volume_query_options  disk_backup_query_options ]

volume_query_options: [ – f file ] [ backup_piece ... ]
disk_backup_query_options: – L [ – D database_name ] [ – t time ]

DESCRIPTION The nsrorainfo command with the volume_query_options option lists the NetWorker
volumes required to restore the backup pieces specified on the command line or in a
file. The volumes listed are the ones the NetWorker server intends to use at the time
the nsrorainfo command is run. If volumes are removed from NetWorker devices or if
volumes are deleted after the nsrorainfo command was run, the NetWorker server
might use different volumes for the restore than the volume specified with the
nsrorainfo command. The nsrorainfo command will list clones of volumes if the origi-
nal volumes are not available.
The nsrorainfo command with the disk_backup_query_options option provides informa-
tion about a backup of Oracle disk backups. This information includes a list of
datafiles, archived redo logs and other files included in the backup. Regularly run the
nsrorainfo command with the disk_backup_query_options option and send the output to
the DBA who performed the original Oracle disk backups, to determine if there are
any missing files from the Oracle disk backups.

OPTIONS – s server
Specifies the NetWorker server to query.
– c client
Specifies the NetWorker client that contains the backups.
– f file Specifies a file that contains a list of backup pieces to query.
–L Specifies to prints the details of database, archived redo log and other files
included in the given backup of Oracle disk backups.
– D database_name
Specifies the name of the database to query.
– t time Specifies the "before" time (in nsr_getdate(3) format). If you use this option,
NMDA retrieves information about the most recent backup of Oracle disk
backups, with a savetime earlier than or the same as the given time value. If
you do not provide this option, NMDA retrieves information about the latest
backup of Oracle disk backups.

EXAMPLES The following command displays information about the latest backup of Oracle disk
backups from the client mars for the database orcl1101 on the NetWorker server
jupiter:
nsrorainfo -s jupiter -c mars -L -D orcl1101

NAME nsrorara – NMDA command for Oracle configuration wizard operations

SYNOPSIS nsrorara [ – i ] [ – u ]

DESCRIPTION The nsrorara program is part of the NMDA Oracle scheduled backup configuration
wizard and the NMDA Oracle recovery configuration wizard. The primary function of
the nsrorara command is to perform operations on behalf of the wizard on the local or
remote NMDA Oracle host. Those operations include, but are not limited to, the data-
base queries to the Oracle server.

The secondary function is to register (– i) or unregister (– u) the wizard as a plug-in on

the client host during installation.

The nsrorara command is invoked only by:

(1) The NetWorker Management Console (NMC) during the creation or modification of
a scheduled backup configuration.

(2) The packaging subsystem during NMDA installation or uninstallation.

Maintenance Commands nsrsybcc ( 1m )

NAME nsrsybcc – NMDA command for checking consistency of Sybase databases

SYNOPSIS nsrsybcc [ – hqv? ] [ – o ckdb ] [ – o ckdbnoidx ] [ – o ckal ] [ – o ckcat ] [ – o ckstor ]

– U username – P password
{ SYBASE:/ASE_server_name 
SYBASE:/ASE_server_name/database_name
[ SYBASE:/ASE_server_name/database_name ... ] }

DESCRIPTION The nsrsybcc program performs consistency checking of the Sybase ASE Server data-
bases by running ASE Server dbcc consistency checks on the databases.
The databases to be checked are specified by the
SYBASE:/ASE_server_name[/database_name] value. The database_name is optional; if it is
omitted, all the databases on the ASE Server are checked except the tempdb database.
The username and password provide the information necessary to log in to the ASE
Server to be backed up. The username must have sufficient permissions to run the dbcc
command on the databases to be checked.
If no checking options are supplied, the default option is -o ckstor when the dbcc data-
base has been set up. If the dbcc database does not exist, the default option is a combi-
nation of the -o ckdbnoidx, -o ckal, and -o ckcat options.
The -o ckstor option is preferable to the other options because it provides higher con-
currency. The -o ckal option may occasionally cause errors 2540 or 2546 to occur when
no real error conditions exist. Running the ASE Server in single user mode prevents
these conditions from being incorrectly reported. The ASE Server Troubleshooting and
Error Messages Guide provides more information on interpreting these and other con-
sistency check errors.
The results of the consistency check are written to stdout. There may be a large
number of informational messages. The informational messages may be suppressed by
using the – q flag.

OPTIONS –h Displays usage.

–q Quiet mode. Displays only error messages.
–v Verbose mode. Causes the nsrsybcc program to report in great detail what it is
doing as it proceeds.
–? Displays usage.
– o ckdb
Performs a dbcc checkdb check on the given databases. This checks index and
data pages, the sorting of indices, pointers, and data rows for each table in the
database.
– o ckdbnoidx
Performs a dbcc checkdb check on the given databases with the skip non-
clustered index option. Nonclustered indexes may be easily (although not
necessarily quickly) recreated, and this option only checks clustered indexes. It
causes a faster consistency check at the cost of possibly greater recovery time if
one of the nonclustered indexes is corrupt.
– o ckal
Performs a dbcc checkalloc check on the given databases. The checkalloc option
checks the page allocations of the database for inconsistency.
– o ckcat
Performs a dbcc checkcatalog check on the given databases. This checks the

NMDA 19.1 34
Maintenance Commands nsrsybcc ( 1m )
system tables in the database for consistency.
– o ckstor
Performs a dbcc checkstorage check on the given databases. This performs a
faster consistency check than the other options, and has greater concurrency
capabilities than the – o ckal option.
– U username
Specifies the ASE Server user that will check the databases.
– P password
Specifies the password for the ASE Server user that will perform the con-
sistency checks.

EXAMPLES Consistency checking a database:

To consistency check the database "accounting" on ASE Server "production", run the
following command:
nsrsybcc -U sa -P p assw or d SYBASE:/production/accounting
This command performs the default consistency checks with the options -o ckal, -o
ckdbnoidx, and -o ckcat if the dbcc database does not exist on the Sybase ASE server. If
the dbcc database has been set up, this command performs a consistency check with
the -o ckstor option.
Consistency checking all the databases on the ASE Server:
To consistency check all the databases on the ASE Server "production" with the -o ckdb
and -o ckal options, run the following command:
nsrsybcc -U sa -P p assw or d -o ckdb -o ckal SYBASE:/production

SEE ALSO nsrsybrc(1m)

DIAGNOSTICS
Exit Codes 0 Normal exit. The consistency check completed without errors.
1 Abnormal exit. There may be consistency errors in the checked databases.

Messages The following is a partial listing of common error messages. Refer to the Administra-
tion Guide for a more complete listing of error messages and how to resolve them.
The context allocation routine failed...
Cannot access file /sybase/config/objectid.dat

This message indicates that the $SYBASE environment variable was not set.
This environment variable needs to be set so that the nsrsybcc program can
find the Sybase localization files required at runtime. The $SYBASE environ-
ment variable should be set to the directory where Sybase was installed (where
the interfaces file is located.) This error may also appear if the Sybase Open
Client software is not installed. Sybase Open Client must be installed for the
nsrsybcc program to run.
Error from server: Msg number, Level number, State number

{ SYBASE:/ASE_server_name 
SYBASE:/ASE_server_name/database_name
[ SYBASE:/ASE_server_name/database_name ... ] }
nsrsybrc – z configuration_file_path

DESCRIPTION The nsrsybrc command restores Sybase ASE Server database backups from the Net-
Worker server. The progress of a restore with nsrsybrc can be monitored with the
Java-based NetWorker Management Console, or with the curses(3X)-based
nsrwatch(1m) program for other terminal types.
The databases to be restored are specified by the
SYBASE:/ASE_server_name[/database_name] value. The database_name is optional; if it is
omitted, all the databases on the Sybase ASE Server are restored except the master
database.
The nsrsybrc command should be issued from the same operating system user ID that
launched the Sybase Backup Server. This user ID owns the backups, and should be
used to restore them. Other operating system user IDs might be unable to see the save
sets that the Sybase Backup Server created.
Note: The master database must be restored before the other system and user data-
bases.
The order for restoring a complete Sybase ASE Server system is to first restore the
master database and then restore the remaining databases. To restore the master data-
base, you must restart the Sybase ASE Server in master recovery mode, with the – m
option of the startserver command. You must first issue the nsrsybrc command to
restore the master database. For example:
nsrsybrc -U sa -P password SYBASE:/ASE_server_name/master
Once this command successfully restores the master database, the Sybase ASE Server
automatically shuts itself down. You must restart the Sybase ASE Server and restore
the remaining databases with the nsrsybrc command. For example:
nsrsybrc -U sa -P password SYBASE:/ASE_server_name
This command restores the remaining system databases and the user databases.
Exercise extreme caution when restoring the master database. If you restore the mas-
ter database to a new database, remember that it has pathnames to the device files. If
you restore the master database to another Sybase ASE Server on the same machine,
the new Sybase ASE Server attempts to use the same device files as the old Sybase
ASE Server.
The username and password options provide the information required to log in to the
Sybase ASE Server to be restored. The username must have sufficient permissions to
perform database loads on the databases to be restored.
You can use the nsrsybrc -z configuration_file_path command and set the required
parameters in the NMDA configuration file, instead of specifying the corresponding
command line options with the nsrsybrc command. If you use the – z option, you
must set all the required parameters for the recovery in the configuration file as
described in the NMDA Administration Guide.

NMDA 19.1 37
Maintenance Commands nsrsybrc ( 1m )

OPTIONS –C Specifies to use only full and incremental backups during the database
recovery, and to ignore cumulative backups.
–h Specifies to display the command usage information.
–k Specifies to perform a database consistency check on each database once it is
restored. The results of the database consistency check are written to stdout.
By default, a database consistency check is not performed. If the -k option is
supplied, then the consistency check is performed with the default options
described in the man page for nsrsybcc(1m).
–p Specifies that the database should not be brought online after the recovery is
completed.
–q Specifies the quiet mode, in which the nsrsybrc command displays only sum-
mary information and error messages.
–v Specifies the verbose mode, in which the nsrsybrc command reports in great
detail what it is doing as it proceeds.
–x Specifies to restore only the backup performed at the exact save time specified
by – t option. This option is ignored if – t option does not contain a valid
point-in-time.
–? Specifies to display the command usage information.
– U username
Specifies the name of the Sybase ASE Server user that performs the backups.
– P password
Specifies the password for the Sybase ASE Server user that performs the back-
ups.
– c client_name
Specifies the client name for starting the restore session. This option is useful
on clients with multiple network interfaces and multiple hostnames, when
multiple index databases are used for the same physical client.
Note: This option does not specify the network interface to use. The network
interface is specified in the server network interface attribute of the Net-
Worker Client resource (see nsr_client(5)).
– d SYBASE:/ASE_server_name[/database_name]
Specifies a new destination for the database. If this option is not used, the
database is restored to its original Sybase ASE Server and database name. If
this option is used, the database is restored to the new destination. This
option can be used to restore a database to a new Sybase ASE Server and data-
base name, or to a new database name in the same Sybase ASE Server. If a
new destination is supplied, only one database_name or ASE_server_name
value can be specified on the command line for the restore. The destination
databases must already exist; the nsrsybrc command does not create the data-
bases automatically. To enable the fastest loading, create new databases for
the restore by using the for load option.
– e AES_pass_phrase
Specifies an additional pass phrase to use for recovery of files that were backed
up with AES encryption. By default, the recovery attempts to use the current
datazone encryption key and the key generated from the default pass phrase.
The – e option causes the nsrsybrc command to generate an encryption key
from the supplied pass phrase and use it if the default and datazone pass
phrase keys do not work. The – e option can be specified multiple times.
– l {load_sql  create_sql}

NMDA 19.1 38
Maintenance Commands nsrsybrc ( 1m )
Specifies the listonly option for displaying the structure information from the
backup, without loading the databases. The Sybase documentation provides
more details about listonly options.
– L directory_pathname
Specifies a shorter alternative temporary full pathname to use in the device
name if the device name exceeds the Sybase maximum, for example, 127 bytes.
– m {up_to_min  up_to_min_noskip  logtail_bk}
Specifies to perform operations for up-to-the-minute recovery of the database.
The keyword used with the – m option specifies the type of operations to per-
form:
up_to_min
The transaction log is backed up and the database is recovered, in that
order. The database recovery is not performed if the transaction log
backup fails.
up_to_min_noskip
The transaction log is backed up and the database is recovered, in that
order. The database recovery is performed even if the transaction log
backup fails.
logtail_bk
Only the transaction log is backed up.
– r backup_password
Specifies the unencrypted password that was used in the password-protected
backup to be restored.
– s server_name
Specifies the hostname of the machine to use as the NetWorker server.
– t date Specifies the date and time to restore to. By default, the data is restored to the
current date and time. Specifies the time to use as the "until_time" that the
database is restored to. If – x option is used, only the backup which was per-
formed at the exact point-in-time will be recovered.
– V {header  full  verifyonly}
Specifies the restore verification level. If no value is specified, then no
verification is carried out. The Sybase documentation provides more details
about the verification options.
– w recover_pool
Specifies the pool from which the recovery volume will be selected. This
parameter is optional. If a pool is not specified, then the NetWorker server
will select the pool used to recover the data.
– z configuration_file_path
Specifies the complete pathname of the configuration file to use for Sybase
restores with nsrsybrc.
