• On other UNIX:

/usr/omni/bin/backint -f restore -u

<ORACLE_SID> -i <input_file>

where the contents of the <

input_file

> will be restored.

If this fails, check if the session was performed successfully and if the
restore was started under the appropriate user account.

Backint anticipates a list of files in the following format:

backup_ID_1

> <

pathName_1

> [<

targetDirectory_1

backup_ID_2

> <

pathName_2

> [<

targetDirectory_2

backup_ID_3

> <

pathName_3

> [<

targetDirectory_3

To retrieve the

<backup_ID>

numbers, enter the following command:

echo #NULL #NULL | backint –f inquiry –u <ORACLE_SID>
