Command-line backup and restore

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

After the host is properly configured for backup and restores with NetWorker, you can run nzbackup and nzrestore at any time from the Netezza Performance Server host.

For example, if a NetWorker Server is named "server_name.company.com," the database is named “test”.

The following is an example of a backup command with the -connector NetWorker option specified:

/nz/kit/bin/nzbackup -db test -connector networker -connectorArgs 
"NSR_SERVER=server_name.company.com"

For parameters that can be used with the nzbackup command and the available -connector options, see Command syntax for nzbackup.

The following is an example of a restore command:

/nz/kit/bin/nzrestore -db test -connector networker -connectorArgs 
"NSR_SERVER=server_name.company.com"
