Using a Snap Creator custom action to complete restore processing
You can use a Snap Creator custom action to complete processing of restores originated outside of Snap Creator.
You can perform this action in the Snap Creator CLI only.
-
In the Snap Creator CLI, enter the following command: snapcreator.exe ---action custom --server server --port port --user user --passwd password --profile profile --config config --params snapname=snapshot_name datapath=datapath restoretype=u2m | su2m restoretime="MM/DD/YYYY HH:MM:SS" disablereplication=Y|N
where
-
server is the host name or IP address of the Snap Creator Server.
-
port is the port number where the Snap Creator Server is running.
-
user is the name of the Snap Creator user.
-
password is the Snap Creator user's password.
You can omit the --passwd option if you do not want to type the password in clear text. Snap Creator will prompt for the password when you execute the command -
profile is the name of the Snap Creator profile.
-
config is the name of the Snap Creator configuration file.
-
snapshot_name is the name of the Snapshot copy from which you want to restore the file.
-
datapath is the pathname of the directory to which you want to restore the file.
-
restoretype is the type of restore to be performed:
-
u2m performs an up-to-the-minute restore.
-
su2m performs a selectable up-to-the-minute restore. Specify the date and time to which you want to play forward Domino transaction logs in MM/DD/YYYY HH:MM:SS format in the --restoretime option. For example, 01/23/2014 12:45:00.
-
-
disablereplication disables Domino replication:
-
Enter N (default) to allow Domino replication. The plug-in uses an existing Domino replica ID for the restored database file.
An alternative method to allow Domino replication is to leave this parameter out of the command. -
Enter Y to disable Domino replication. The plug-in sets a new Domino replica ID for the restored database file. NOTE: Appending --verbose to the command will show additional information about the restore operation. Otherwise, you are immediately returned to the command prompt when the command finishes executing.

snapcreator.exe --action custom --server Tampico --port 8443 --user admin --profile Domino --config Nantes --params snapname=Nantes-Test_Policy_20140123121459 datapath=F:\Domino\data\restore\mail\t04.nsf restoretype=su2m restoretime="01/23/2014 12:45:00" disablereplication=y
