To Restore Your Server

You can use DSCC to perform this task. For information, see Directory Service Control Center Interface and the DSCC online help.

Use one of the following commands to restore your server:

• If your server is local and stopped, type:

  $ dsadm restore instance-path archive-dir

  For example, to restore a backup from a backup directory, type:

  $ dsadm restore /local/ds/ local/ds/bak/2006_07_01_11_34_00

• If your server is remote and running, type:

  $ dsconf restore -h host -p port archive-dir

  For example, to restore a backup from a backup directory:

  $ dsconf restore -h host1 -p 1389 /local/ds/bak/2006_07_01_11_34_00

For more information about these commands, see the dsadm(1M) and dsconf(1M) man pages.
