Tags:
From SAP Sybase IQ 15.2 esd1 and above, Restore to DR side can be done by starting utility_db with DR Coordinator Server Name, it no longer have to same
as the production Server. And if directory structure and dbfile name and sizes are exactly same as production Coordinator Srer, then DBA do not need to drop
existing Secondary Servers. For complete restore instructions, please see:
After restoring DR Coordinator, DBA can start DR Coordinator with -iqmpx_sn 1 -iqmpx_ov 1 switch and issue commands listed below to alter
DR configuration:
(DBA)> alter multiplex server PRDIQC rename DRIQC host 'myhost' port 9981
(DBA)> alter multiplex server PRDIQS rename DRIQS host 'myhost' port 9982
Restart Multiplex normally without -iqmpx_sn 1 and -iqmpx_ov 1 switches.
