Generating Scripts for Data Sync - Two-Way Sync

Generate scripts for the data sync operation.

Procedure

1. Download the Sample XML File and save the file with restore_by_job.xml name on the CommServe.

2. Open the restore_by_job.xml file using an XML editor and provide a value for the following parameters:

   • clientName - Name of the destination computer

   • destClient - Name of the source computer

   • destPath - Path for restoring the files

   • mapFilePath - Path of the map file

   Note: This XML file will be used as an input file for the batch file which picks up the last successful backup job and triggers a restore by job operation for that job.

3. Add the following content to a file and save the file as restore_last_backup.bat on the CommServe. Make sure that the file is saved as a batch file (.bat extension).

    
   @echo off
    setlocal ENABLEDELAYEDEXPANSION
    if not defined GALAXY_BASE set GALAXY_BASE=$[SoftwareInstallationDirectoryBase]
    set PATH=$[%PATH%;%GALAXY_BASE%]
    set response="$[RBJ_13328124.tmp]"
    set BackupJobID =$[0]
    qlogin -u "$[Username]" -ps "$[Password]" -cs "$[CommServeName]" 
    if %errorlevel% NEQ 0 (
    echo Login failed.
    goto endOfScript
    )
    :The following command fetches the last successful backup job id.
    FOR /F "skip=$[2]" %%J IN ('qlist lastjob -c $[Destination_computer] -a $[Q_FILESYSTEM] -b "$[defaultBackupSet]" -s "$[SubClientName]" -js $[Completed]') do (
    set BackupJobID= $[%%J]
    )
    :The following command triggers the restore by job using Command Line.
    qoperation execute -cs $[CommServeName] -af $[Path_of_the_xml_file] -jobids $[%BackupJobID%] -sourceItem "$[2:%BackupJobID%]" 
    qlogout

4. Provide the following input values in the saved batch file:

   • SoftwareInstallationDirectory - Software installation directory

   • Username, Password - User details saved in the Record the Username and Password procedure.

   • CommServeName - Name of the CommServe

   • Source_computer - Name of the destination computer

   • SubClientName - Name of the subclient

   • Path_of_the_xml_file - Path of the restore_by_job.xml file.
