Backup, Restore, Recovery, and Replication

Concurrent Object Replication

You can now use vbr to perform object replication concurrently with many other tasks. The replicate task can run concurrently with backup and with object replicate tasks in either direction. Replication cannot run concurrently with tasks that require that the database be down (full restore and copy cluster). Each concurrent task must have a unique snapshot name.

For more information about object replication, see Replicating Tables and Schemas to an Alternate Database.

Full Backup and Restore in Eon Mode

(Introduced in hotfix version 9.1.1-4)

Vertica now supports full backup and restore for Eon Mode databases. Backup and restore work the same way as in Enterprise Mode for the most part; Eon Mode has some additional requirements. See Requirements for Eon Mode Databases.
