This control and its associated fields are only
displayed if you do not select a backup image from the list of available
images from the list box above it (that is, Select an entry from the
list is not selected). Specify the media of the backup image in
the Media Type box. The choices for this field are as
follows:
- Specify directories or tapes (for NT and UNIX--based systems; Specify
directories for OS/2 systems)
- If the media type for the backup image is either a directory or tape,
specify the correct path or paths to the backup image in the List of
directories box.
You can use the Browse push button to list the
available directories.
You can specify more than one path to the backup image if the database or
database partition was backed up to more than
one location. In this situation, the backup image will be listed in
multiple locations, and all the images will have the same time stamp.
All portions of the backup image must be concurrently available for the
restore operation to complete.
- ADSM
- If the media type for the backup image is ADSM, use the
Sessions box to specify the number of ADSM sessions that you
want. To reset the number of sessions to the default value (1), click
on Default.
- Vendor DLL
- If the media type for the backup image is DLL, specify the DLL name in the
DLL Name field, and use the Sessions box to specify the
number of DLL sessions that you want. To reset the number of sessions
to the default value (1), click on Default. To display the
list of DLL names, click on Browse.
- User Exit (OS/2 systems only)
- If the backup image is managed by a user exit, no other information is
required.
The remaining fields for this group of controls are as follows:
- The Date field specifies the date of the backup image to
use.
You can either type the date, or you can click on the arrow to open a
calendar on which you select the date. Click on the arrows at the top
of the calendar to display the month that you want, then on a date to select
it. The calendar closes, and the date you selected will be displayed in
the field.
- The Time field specifies the time of the backup image to
use. To change the time, click on the portion of the time that you want
to change and either type the value that you want, or use the arrows to adjust
the value.
Notes:
- You do not have to specify the date and time if only one backup image
exists at the location specified for the backup image.
- You cannot use the Control Center to restore backup images that were taken
previous to DB2 Version 5.2.
