Integrates one or more BACKUP -INCREMENTAL files into a corresponding database. The transaction number in the first incremental backup must be one more than the current transaction number of the database. Otherwise, MUPIP RESTORE terminates with an error.
The format of the RESTORE command is:
RE[STORE] [-[NO]E[XTEND]] file-name file-list
The file-name identifies the name of the database file that RESTORE uses as a starting point.
The file-list specifies one or more files produced by BACKUP -INCREMENTAL to RESTORE into the database. The file-name are separated by commas (,) and must be in sequential order, from the oldest transaction number to the most recent transaction number. RESTORE may take its input from a UNIX file on any device that supports such files.
The current transaction number in the database must match the starting transaction number of each successive input to the RESTORE.
If the BACKUP -INCREMENTAL was created using -TRANSACTION=1, create a new database with MUPIP CREATE and do not access it, except the standalone MUPIP commands INTEG -FILE, EXTEND, and SET before initiating the RESTORE.
