Backup and Restore GuideThe HCL OneDB™ Backup and Restore Guide describes how to use the HCL® OneDB® ON-Bar utility to back up and restore database server data. This will enable you to recover your databases after data is lost or becomes corrupted due to hardware or software failure or accident.
ON-Bar backup and restore system
Configure the storage manager and ON-BarThe topics in this section provide the information that you need to plan and to set up ON-Bar with a storage manager.
Configure a storage managerON-Bar backup and restore operations require a storage manager that integrates with ON-Bar through an XBSA shared library interface.
Configuring TSMTo use HCL® Tivoli® Storage Manager (TSM) with HCL® OneDB® databases, you must install and configure the Tivoli® Storage Manager client on your database server computer and Tivoli® Storage Manager on your storage computer.
Updating the storage-manager definition in the sm_versions file for TSMYou must update the storage-manager definition in sm_versions file for ON-Bar to use with HCL® Tivoli® Storage Manager (TSM).

Updating the storage-manager definition in the sm_versions file for TSM

You must update the storage-manager definition in sm_versions file for ON-Bar to use with HCL® Tivoli® Storage Manager (TSM).

About this task

Before ON-Bar starts a backup or restore process, it calls the currently installed version of the storage-manager-specific XBSA shared library to get its version number. If this version is compatible with the current version of ON-Bar and is defined in the sm_versions file, ON-Bar begins the requested operation.

Procedure

To update the storage-manager definition in sm_versions file:

Copy the sm_versions.std template to a new file, sm_versions in the $ONEDB_HOME/etc directory on UNIX™ or the %ONEDB_HOME%\etc directory on Windows™.
Put tsm in the sm_name field of the sm_versions file. The value adsm is also valid but will be deprecated in a future release.
Stop any ON-Bar processes (onbar_d, onbar_w, or onbar_m) that are currently running and restart them for the changes to take effect.

Example

The following example shows the Tivoli Storage Manager definition in the sm_versions file:

1|5.3|tsm|5
