To restore a database instance or set up a standby instance, you import backups into a database instance. Before you can import data and log backups, you first have to determine
with which page to begin the import
in which backup this page is located
which backup is the next to be imported
You can find the prerequisites under Database Manager CLI
You display the restart information of the database instance into which the backups are imported. From the restart information you can find out which log pages are in the log area, i.e. the first log page and the last used log page.
You can also display the backup history of the database instance from which the backups were created.
From the backup history you can determine:
for data backups: while restoring, which page should be imported after this backup
for log backups: which log pages are in the respective backup, i.e. from which page number to which page number
How you use this information depends on whether you are restoring a database instance or setting up a standby instance.
