This example shows status upon completion of the backup from the example in Back Up a Database (dbBackup).

% ttGridAdmin dbBackupStatus database1 -name B2017022245544
Database  Backup          Repository Host  Instance  Elem State     Started                Finished

                                     host3 instance1    1 Complete
                                     host4 instance1    2 Complete
                                     host5 instance1    3 Complete

Notes

  • When you believe the backup is complete, confirm that dbBackupStatus shows that the backup as a whole and for each instance is shown as complete. If there were any failures, see Check the Status of a Backup in Oracle TimesTen In-Memory Database Scaleout User's Guide.

  • Y in the Finished column indicates that the command has finished running, regardless of state—that each instance has succeeded or failed.

  • The metadata associated with a database backup is deleted when the database is deleted. After a database is deleted, you can use the repositoryList command to see existing backups.
