1. Change system time
OVMS1system > show time
17-JAN-2000 15:35:21
$ Set time=12-JAN-2000:14:05:34/CLUSTER
All the nodes in that cluster will run on the same time.
2. User want to know what license installed in the node:-

$ LICENSE LIST
or
$ @SYS$UPDATE:VMSLICENSE “Requires SYSPRV and CMKRNL privileges ...”
> OPTION 4 > Product Name []:DECPS > FULL
> 99 to exit

34. User request to restore disk or file from tape :-
Steps for restore from backup tape for whole disk. (Total Disk Failure)
(Based on example of OVMS_KMSEN failed on 16Nov99 11:00am and whole disk need to be restore from tape.)
• Inform 24x7 to search for latest weekly backup tape and daily incremental backup tape from tape room.
• Check in OVMS_KMUSER1:[IT.OVMS.BACKUP.FBCKJOU] for the COM_date.jou for the weekly full backup
whether the saveset reside in first tape or second tape. Command to check the location of the saveset is as below:-
$ BACKUP/JOU=OVMS_KMUSER1:[IT.OVMS.BACKUP.FBCKJOU] -
SYST_16NOV99.JOU/LIST
• After find the location of the saveset whether reside in first tape or second tape. Insert the tape into the tape drive.
21
• Mount the $1$DUA215: foreign to enable the restore process. Command as below:-
$ MOUNT/FOREIGN $1$DUA215:
• $ BACKUP/IMAGE/LOG $1$MUA0:SEN1_14NOV99.BCK /SAV $1$DUA215:
• After restore the Weekly full backup for the OVMS_KMSEN. Unload the Weekly backup tape and insert 15-NOV-1999
daily incremental backup tape. Total of 2 daily incremental backup need to be restore to bring the OVMS_KMSEN data
up to date
• Due to all VAXes doing daily incremental backup with parameter of /SINCE=BACKUP. So all the daily backup need to
be restore sequencially from the Weekly Backup Tape date to the current date.
• Before restore incremental backup. Dismount the $1$DUA215: and mount it again normally. Command as below:-
$ MOUNT/SYSTEM/NOASSIST $1$DUA215: OVMS_KMSEN OVMS_KMSEN
• To restore 15-NOV-1999 incremental backup. Below is the command :-
$ BACKUP/LOG $1$MUA0:SEN1_15NOV99.BCK /SAV -
/SELECT=$1$DUA215:[000000...]*.*;* -
$1$DUA215:[000000...]*.*;*
• To restore 16-NOV-1999 incremental backup to make the data up to date. Below is the command:-
$ BACKUP/LOG $1$MUA0:SEN1_16NOV99.BCK /SAV
/SELECT=$1$DUA215:[000000...]*.*;* -
$1$DUA215:[000000...]*.*;*
• After the restore process completed. Then shadow the OVMS_KMSEN disk.
Notes:: Estimated restore time per tape about 3-4 hours.
Steps for restore from backup tape for certain selected files.
• Check in the OVMS_KMUSER1:[IT.OVMS.BACKUP.iBCKLIS] or
OVMS_KMUSER1:[IT.OVMS.BACKUP.fBCKLIS] to find the latest files that can be restore.Identify the date and disk.
• Inform 24x7 to search for latest tape backup that contain the files.
• Insert the tape into the tape drive.
• Restore the data directly from the tape drive and put in the wanted directory. Command as below:-
$ BACKUP/LOG/REWIND/SELECT=[COMETS54.CMT]CMT001.EXE; -
$1$MUA0:SYS3_15NOV99.BCK/SAV OVMS_KMSYS3:[COMETS54.CMT]*.*;
Notes:: Estimated restore time per tape about 3-4 hours as well unless terminate the restore process after make sure
that data needed already been restore.
CAUTION:: Make sure the backup tape is always write protected during restore process.
