PROREST in Progress 8.3

[psangalo]

Hi;

I'm trying to restore a full backup from db_sip.bkp, but I'm suffering to get it...

I used to backup this sintaxe:

probkup db_sip c:\Backup\db_sip.bkp

To restore:

I just copy db_sip.st to directory \backup\restore

d .\db_sip.d1 f 512000
d .\db_sip.d2 f 512000
d .\db_sip.d3 f 512000
d .\db_sip.d4
b .\db_sip.b1 f 512000
b .\db_sip.b2

and then I applied this command:

prorest db_sip c:\Backup\db_sip.bkp

The results just give me a db_sip.db with 2GB...and don't create partitions defined in db_sip.st

Thank's

Before you restore do:

prostrct create db_sip

This will create a "void" db using the .st file. If that doesn't work then the problem is not with prorest but is, rather, with the .st file.

If the prostrct create does work then you will be prompted to overwrite it when you restore.
