1) Create a script that load test data in a database.

--------- UNIX / Linux ---------

# vi insert.sh

2) Run the script in a command shell

--------- UNIX / Linux ---------

# chmod 777 insert.sh

# ./insert.sh 

3) Do a full backup

--------- UNIX / Linux ---------

# /opt/repostor/rdp4Sybase/bin/sybasebackup -u sa -s test

4) Do a incremental backup

--------- UNIX / Linux ---------

# /opt/repostor/rdp4Sybase/bin/sybasebackup -u sa -s test -l

6) Avbryt (terminate "insert.bat" / "insert.sh" script

7) Do a new incremental backup

--------- UNIX / Linux ---------

# /opt/repostor/rdp4Sybase/bin/sybasebackup -u sa -s test -l

8) Verify content in the "test" table, in the test database

printf "select * from test\n\go\n"|isql -U sa -P "" -D test

9) Drop the test databasen

# printf "drop database test\ngo\n"|isql -U sa -P "" 

10) Create the test database

# printf "create database test on db=100 log on log=100 for load\ngo\n"|isql -U sa -P ""

11) Restore the test database from backup

Run kommandot:

--------- UNIX / Linux ---------

# /opt/repostor/rdp4Sybase/bin/sybaserestore -u sa -s test -v -l -t YYYY-MM-DD.HH:MM:SS

Where: YYYY-MM-DD.HH:MM:SS is any date / time from the list above

Eg;;

# sybaserestore -u sa -s test -v -l -t 2009-11-25.19:11:27

12) online database

# printf "online database test\ngo\n"|isql -U sa -P "" 

13) Verify content of the test table in the test database
