Restore an IDS Database 

 

2.  On the Source tab, right-click the Informix server.  

The Restore Options dialog opens. 

 

Restore Methods  Physical and 

Logical 

-r Restores 

all 

dbspaces, 

blobspaces, and logical 
logs. 

 

Physical Only 

-p 

Restores all dbspaces 
and blobspaces. 

 

Logical Only 

-l 

Restores logs only.  

Restore Options 

Last Logical 

-n log 

The number of the last 
log to be restored. If any 
logs exist after this one, 
they are not restored. 

 

Point in Time 

-t time 

The point in time at 
which to stop the restore. 

Important! The Point in Time option is for Informix server-level restores 
and cannot be combined with any individual dbspace or blobspace restore 
job. Do not select the Logical Only restore method and the Point in Time 
restore option at the same time. If the Logical Only method is combined 
with any dbspaces or blobspaces, IDS ignores the objects and executes an 
Informix server-level logical restore. 

Note: For information about the different options and requirements 
available for performing cold restores, warm restores, physical restores, 
and logical restores, see the Informix ON-Bar documentation.
