Configure Restoredev file - HP Data Protector (MicroFocus)


In some Scenarios restore files when you use with default backed up device if it has been changed after the backup, such cases you need to change or divert the recovery process with a new device.

ex: Oracle restore took wrong device, not that at backup time

In case such situations occur it is always worth considering the possibilities that might affect the device selection due to user activities.
Two different ways to affect restore device should be taken into account:

    a) restoredev file
    b) omnidbutil -changebdev
