Hello Sahil,

It's goode to have the logbackups too in your test scenario or change your test scenario.

Are you SAP customer?

In your case as you deleted all the DATA Volumes manually

=>

a)

Using DBMGUI -> Run recovery with initialization

or

b)

Using dbmcli ->

use the command :

db_activate RECOVER <medium_name> DATA [ExternalBackupID <external_backup_ID>] [AUTOIGNORE]

< More details could be found in MAXDB library >
