Recovering the Global Database

If for any reason the Global database at a Satellite becomes out of date, it can be recovered.

Try running the RECOVER GLOBAL AT <loc> or RECOVER GLOBAL TO ALLlocations commands, provided that the Global network has not been changed. (It will still be necessary for users (including the Administrator) to leave base product at the Satellite.)

If this is not successful then the following procedure should be followed but only if the above commands are not successful:

1. Stop the Global daemon at the Hub and at the Satellite location.

2. Inform all users, including the Administrator, at both the Satellite and the Hub to save work and exit their sessions.

3. Physically copy the Global database (e.g. abcglb) from the Hub to the Satellite.

4. Restart the daemons and allow users to start work again.
