As part of my resolution of server failure over the weekend I ran a Recovery Agent extract on the target replica. In the end we decided not to manually apply any of the AIs due to there not being much work lost as a result of not applying it. But for future reference, I was wondering if someone could answer me something. Just for clarity - the command I issued was: $ dsrutil target -C RECOVERY agent recagent.out Here is that file: Online Replication Recovery Information for F:\DATABASE\LIVE\icmasliv: Replication version: 5.0 Date created: Mon Apr 21 12:43:06 2014 Date last written: Thu Apr 24 18:02:25 2014 Replication local agent information: Last Block: Incomplete Last block received location: area: 87, seq: 7687, loc: 134152192, offset: 0 Last block processed location: area: 0, seq: 0, loc: 0, offset: 0 Last block ACKed location: area: 87, seq: 7687, loc: 133685248, offset: 4187 Last block received: no date Last block ACKed: no date ID of the last TX begin: 1731109729 ID of the last TX end: 1731109730 Time of last TX end: Thu Apr 24 18:00:43 2014 Last AI Extent processed AIMAGE BEGIN date: Sat May 25 02:16:06 2013 AIMAGE NEW date: Thu Apr 24 17:01:54 2014 After-Image File Number: 7687 File Last Opened: Thu Apr 24 17:01:54 2014 Completely Applied to Target: No The docs I was looking at say that the AI File Number is relevant. Except we don't have 7687 files. Now I notice that the Last block received location is area 87. And 87 is the last 2 digits of the file number. Coincidence? Essentially, how would I have decided which AI(s) needed to be applied?
