Hi Guys,

I am running db2 v7.1 on SunOS 5.8 with circular logging. I was attempting to do a full db restore with an offline backup using the command "db2 restore database tdwdb from /backup2 taken at 20080929133559 into tdwdb". However it gave the error no start db manager. So, I issued the db2start command and used the same resrore command.

It's been 2 days and I wanted to check the status of the restore. So I issued the command "db2 get db cfg for tdwdb". However I noticed "Restore Pending" had a value of No. Does this mean that the db isn't being restored? Also, since I was doing a full restore and all the backups where offline; shouldn't the restore have taken place while the db was offline?


Thanks for the assistance, this is my first restore

DB2 V7 is very old, but I assume this will work:

db2 list utilities show detail

If a restore is still active, it will show up in the output of the above command.

Thanks for the quick response. It was listed as running after I used the "db2 list applications command". Thanks once again
