Hi,

If I understand your question correctly, you need to restore a backup of a system based on ECC 6 and Oracle (on Unix).

The following steps should be followed:

1. Make sure you have a full backup of your ORACLE database - either offline, online consistent or a online backup. You can check this in the /sapbackup directory of your Oracle database.

2. If you are using an online backup make sure you have the archive logs in the /oraarch directory or in the backup directory - you should have all the archive logs to a point you want to recover the system to.

3. Stop the SAP and Database system.

4. Use brrestore to restore the database backup.

5. If you want to restore the archivelogs - use brrestore to restore the archive logs.

6. Use brrecover to recover your database to the point you want (or you can also select the "cancel" option then brrecover automaticlly recovers the database to poitn till which the archive logs are available).

7. You can reset the logs if you want and startup the database.

8. Start SAP.

9. Check the ORACLE alert_<SID>.log and SAP dev_ms, dev_disp and dev_w* logs to confirm everything is fine.

This is in a nutshell if you use ORACLE specific methodology.

Let me know if this is sufficient.

Please award points if this is useful.
