SAP BI online backup recovey

[Former Member]

Hi experts,

We need to make an online bakup of our BI system. But we had some infopackages that ran after the online backup, so the delta timestamps in ECC are greater than the timestamp of the backup.

Do you know if after the recovery of the BI online backup the timestamps in ECC will be also reversed?

If not, is there any way of performing this reverse activity?

Thanks in advance

Best Regards

We need to know why you need to do a restore. In case you can do a full recovery (apply all redo logs), then you don't loose anything.

Besides that be aware that you might run into the NOLOGGING issue, have a look at sap note [849485 - Reconstruction of the NOLOGGING indexes after recovery|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/849485]

Cheers Michael

Edit: sap note [547464 - Nologging Option when creating indexes|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/547464] is also a suggested reading. This is generally only relevant to BI systems.

I would ask this in the BW forum.

but for your info, from what I understand, your BW functional will need to reload these cubes completely to avoid erroneous cubes.

Answers are No and No

BW functional folks can give a better answer on how to catch up but definetely cant be reversed
