Move Archived Databases to an Archive Directory
If you moved your archived files to an off-site location, use your site procedures to retrieve them and bring them back on-site.
Move the archived databases back to the archive directory of either the original CA Enterprise Log Manager server or a remote server configured for non-interactive authentication. The archive directory is /opt/ca/LogManager/data/archive.
To move an archived database from an external storage to your network
- Move the database files to restore from external storage back to your network in one of the following ways:
- If you use auto-archive to automatically move your archived files to the remote server, then copy them back to the archive directory on this remote server. (This remote server is already configured for non-interactive authentication with the CA Enterprise Log Manager server to which the archived databases are to be restored.)
- If you do not use auto-archive, copy your archived files back to the archive directory on their original CA Enterprise Log Manager server.
- Proceed in one of the following ways, depending on the location of the archived files.
- If the archived files are on the remote server configured for auto-archiving, restore auto-archived files with the restore-ca-elm.sh script.
- If the archived files are in the archive directory on their original CA Enterprise Log Manager server, notify CA Enterprise Log Manager that the archived files have been restored with LMArchive utility. Upon notification, the restored files are put into a defrosted state.
