Perform a restore

Deployment options: Netezza Performance Server for Cloud Pak for Data System

Run the bprestore NetBackup utility to restore the host backup file. The following is an example.
bprestore -p nzhostbackup -w -L /nz/tmp/hostrestore.log 
/nz/tmp/hostbackup.20070521

Keep in mind the following important points for the bprestore utility and the example:

  • Specify the explicit path to the bprestore command if it is not part of your account PATH setting. The default location for the utility is /usr/openv/netbackup/bin.
  • You can display syntax for the bprestore utility by running bprestore without options.
Note: An alternative to the bprestore command is the bp interactive NetBackup client utility. The utility steps you through a backup or a restore.
