Restore of archived transaction logs

Concepts that are associated with restoring archived transaction logs are described.

This function allows a single, archived transaction log file to be restored independently of a routine database restore. Restoring a single, archived transaction log file assists with disaster recovery operations. By retrieving the most recent archived log file, it is possible to rebuild the Domino transaction log control file. Even after a loss of the active transaction log, archived transaction log files can be used to recover restored database backups to a more current state. More than one archived transaction log file can be restored at a time.

Run the following command to restore an archived log:

Domdsmc restorelogarchive log_name
