DB2 issues on restore with rollforward

recently had a few problem trying to restore a DB2 online compressed backup from one AIX machine to another. I thought it would have been a simple process as saying Shell db2 restore db MYDB from /home/user/backup 1 db2 restore db MYDB from /home/user/backup which worked fine, Untill i tried to connect to the database. That is when i got the error [code] db2 => connect to MYDB SQL1117N A connection to or activation of database "AM2" cannot be made because of ROLL-FORWARD PENDING. SQLSTATE=57019 [/code] So i tried searching for a solution and tried everything i could. [code] db2 => rollforward db MYDB to end of logs and stop SQL4970N Roll-forward recovery on database "MYDB" cannot reach the specifiedstop point (end-of-log or point-in-time) because of missing or corrupted log file(s) on database partition(s) "0". Roll-forward recovery processing has halted on log file "S0001797.LOG". db2 => rollforward db MYDB complete SQL1276N Database "MYDB" cannot be brought out of rollforward pending state until roll-forward has passed a point in time greater than or equal to "2009-09-25-06.39.04.000000 UTC", because node "0" contains information later than the specified time. db2 => rollforward db MYDB to 2009-09-25-06.39.04.000000 and stop SQL1274N The database "MYDB" requires roll-forward recovery and the point-in-time must be to the end of logs. db2 => rollforward db MYDB query status Rollforward Status Input database alias = MYDB Number of nodes have returned status = 1 Node number = 0 Rollforward status = DB working Next log file to be read = S0001797.LOG Log files processed = S0001795.LOG - S0001796.LOG Last committed transaction = 2009-09-25-06.39.04.000000 UTC [/code] To cut it short this is what i did to fix it. [code] db2 => restore db MYDB from /home/db2inst1/OSOL logtarget /tmp DB20000I The RESTORE DATABASE command completed successfully. db2 => rollforward db MYDB to end of logs and stop overflow log path (/tmp) noretrieve Rollforward Status Input database alias = MYDB Number of nodes have returned status = 1 Node number = 0 Rollforward status = not pending Next log file to be read = Log files processed = S0001795.LOG - S0001799.LOG Last committed transaction = 2009-09-25-06.39.04.000000 UTC DB20000I The ROLLFORWARD command completed successfully. db2 => connect to MYDB Database Connection Information Database server = DB2/AIX64 9.1.4 SQL authorization ID = DB2INST1 Local database alias = MYDB
