Backup and Restore GuideThe Informix® Backup and Restore Guide describes how to use the Informix® ON-Bar and ontape utilities to back up and restore database server data. These utilities enable you to recover your databases after data is lost or becomes corrupted due to hardware or software failure or accident.
Backup and restore configuration parameter reference
Backup and restore configuration parametersThese topics describe the configuration parameters that you use with the ON-Bar, ontape, and archecker utilities.
ON-Bar and ontape configuration parameters and environment variableMany properties of the ON-Bar and ontape utilities are controlled by configuration parameters in the onconfig file. ON-Bar also has an environment variable.
IFX_TSM_OBJINFO_OFF environment variableSet the IFX_TSM_OBJINFO_OFF environment variable to disable support for restoring backup objects that are replicated, imported, or exported between Spectrum Protect servers.

IFX_TSM_OBJINFO_OFF environment variable

Set the IFX_TSM_OBJINFO_OFF environment variable to disable support for restoring backup objects that are replicated, imported, or exported between Spectrum Protect servers.

By default, ON-Bar stores unique IDs in the metadata of backup objects that are created by Spectrum Protect. During a restore, ON-Bar checks the metadata to identify the object. Therefore, ON-Bar can restore a backup whose original ID, which is stored as CopyID columns in the ON-Bar catalog, changed because the object was replicated, exported, or imported between Spectrum Protect servers. To prevent the ability to restore backup objects that are moved between Spectrum Protect servers, set the IFX_TSM_OBJINFO_OFF environment variable to 1.

To unset the IFX_TSM_OBJINFO_OFF environment variable, run the following command:

unset IFX_TSM_OBJINFO_OFF
