Recovery Steps

If your database encountered the previously mentioned errors or symptoms, do the following steps to recover the database:

Run the SARDBASE utility VERIFY function to verify and correct the database.
You can run SARBCH LIST before and after the VERIFY, to account for any data that were lost in the process.
If necessary, you can restore lost data from backup tapes using SARTDR TADD.
The output from SARBCH LIST shows the tape sequence number for each SYSOUT. The tape sequence number is part of the last qualifier of the tape data set name used by SARTDR TADD.

Notes:
- If many SYSOUTs are missing, you can save time by using SARDBASE RESTORE as an alternative to SARTDR TADD.
- For more information, see the sections Minimizing Non Archival Time (earlier in this chapter), SARDBASE RESTORE Using Forward Recovery Data (later in this chapter), and SARDBASE RESTORE Without Forward Recovery Data (later in this chapter).
After SARTDR TADD has run, set the EROPRO initialization parameter to ALL before the standard backup cycle.
Restart the CA View archival task and resume operation.
If additional errors remain after the VERIFY, see Recovery from Media Problems, earlier in this chapter.
