nbdb_move

nbdb_move — move location of the NBDB database files after installation

SYNOPSIS

<nbu_dir_path>nbdb_move -data data_directory [-index index_directory] [-tlog log_directory] [-mlog log_directory] [-config_only] [-owner EMM | DBM | DARS]

On Windows systems, <nbu_dir_path> is <install_path>\NetBackup\bin\

DESCRIPTION

nbdb_move moves the NBDB and the BMRDB database files from the default directory locations to customer-specified directories. This action separates data from indexes and transaction logs to improve performance. This command also moves database data files and transaction files to the following default location:

On Windows systems: install_path\NetBackupDB\data.

OPTIONS

-config_only

Updates the configuration files with the directory locations specified. The database files are not moved. Use this option in a recovery operation when the database files were already relocated manually and need their configuration settings to be saved.

-data data_directory

Moves the main database files to the customer-specified directories that data_directory designates.

-index index_directory

Changes the directory of the index database files.

-mlog log_directory

Creates a mirrored transaction log and puts it in a designated directory location. If a mirrored log already exists, this command can be used to move it to a different location.

-owner EMM | DBM | DARS]

Moves the database data, index, or log files for a specified data space.

-tlog log_directory

Changes the transaction log directory.
