You specify the succeeding medium with which importing the backup should continue.
The reply to this DBM command gives you information about the import of the backup. In particular, the Returncode reply field is to be evaluated. However, you get the reply only if the backup has been imported completely, or if the backup was interrupted. This command may therefore take a long time to execute.
If, after executing this DBM command the recovery is interrupted again (message number -8020), you use this DBM command to enter the next succeeding medium.
If you import a backup that was generated on a group of parallel backup media and receive this message, repeat this DBM command until there is no succeeding medium to be imported anymore. As long as there are still individual media of the group in the recovery process and you get message -8020 close it with DBM command recover_ignore until the import of all backup media is complete.
· You must have the server authorization Backup.
· You have executed the DBM command for recovering the database instance (see: recover_start). The operation was interrupted because the data stored on the backup medium was imported completely. You are still in the same database session.
