Procedure
To recover the central administration console database
from a backup, complete the following steps:
- Open the following folder:
Install_Location\IBM\Tivoli\Tipv2_fbws\profiles\TIPProfile\fbfw\CA_DB
- Determine when the database was created, by reviewing the
date and time for the file service.properties.
For the database to be up-to-date, the date and time must correspond
to the most recent installation or upgrade of Tivoli Storage Manager FastBack
for Workstations.
If the date and time are more recent, then the database was created
again because the original database was removed or deleted.
- Stop the central administration console service.
- Find the most recent backup of the central administration console database
in your backup system.
- Find the CA_DB folder in the backup.
- Copy the CA_DB folder from the backup
to the following location on your system:
Install_Location\IBM\Tivoli\Tipv2_fbws\profiles\TIPProfile\fbfw
- Start the central administration console service.
