Performing Backup and Recovery of Data

Database administrators should perform regular backups and maintenance tasks on the Headquarters Database and on the Regional Databases. If a failure occurs on a Regional Database and it cannot be recovered to the exact point of failure, you must reextract the Regional Database on the Database Server at its parent node.

If the Regional node can be recovered to the exact point of failure, the S_DOCK_STATUS values of the HQ and regional nodes will be in sync. After recovery to the point of failure, the following transactions will be synchronized: (1) those that were not synchronized at the time of failure and (2) those created on the HQ and Regional nodes after the time of failure.

If transactions are lost on the HQ node, the child nodes and subsequent child nodes must be reextracted. You must also reextract the mobile users who synchronize with the Regional Siebel Server whose Regional Database failed.
