[Info-ingres] create new database from checkpoint

[Martin Bowes]

Hi Rich,

Yes, but with some caveats.

The two hosts must be kept in synch with both OS and Ingres version levels. Furthermore they must have the same directory structure for the Ingres installations. That is II_SYSTEM, II_DATABASE, II_JOURNAL etc must be the same.

Do you need any instruction in how to proceed from here to effect the recovery?

If you intend to allow multiple Ingres installations to use a single recovery host then I suggest you create each of the primary installations with a distinct installation identifier and different paths for II_SYSTEM etc. Trust me that helps significantly and it's far better to set that up initially than attempt to retrofit it later.

Marty

Is it possible to use a checkpoint from one Linux server and use this to create the database on another Linux server?
Both are 64 bit SUSE.

Thanks,
Rich
