I have a backup from an ML 4.2 database that I’m trying to restore to an ML 8
server. The database configurations are (or should be) the same between both
servers and both are running on Linux servers.
If I have the same set of forests defined on the ML 8 server as in the backup
then when I go to the restore screen it lists all the forests in the backup but
all their check boxes are unchecked and greyed out. If I delete some of the
forests from the ML 8 server then those forests are selected and not greyed out.
But…
When I proceed with the restore I consistently get failures like this:
Operation failed with error message: XDMP-NOFOREST:
xdmp:database-restore((xs:unsignedLong("5211046837612715608"),
xs:unsignedLong("5138674030818805002")), "/marklogic/backup/rsuite/20170726-1",
(), fn:false(), (), fn:false(), ()) -- No forest with identifier
5211046837612715608. Check server logs.
I’m not seeing any other errors in the ErrorLog.txt log
I didn’t see anything in the ML 8 backup and restore docs that suggested what
the issue might be.
The 5211046837612715608 value comes from databases.xml and I see a mapping for
this ID in the assignments.xml file:
<assignment>
<forest-name>rsuite02</forest-name>
<enabled>true</enabled>
<host>14194071972761628339</host>
<data-directory>/somedir/MarkLogic</data-directory>
<updates-allowed>all</updates-allowed>
<failover-enable>false</failover-enable>
<failover-hosts/>
<forest-id>5211046837612715608</forest-id>
<forest-backups/>
<forest-replicas/>
</assignment>
And there is a directory Forests/rsuite02 in the backup.
Any idea what would be causing this failure?
Thanks,
Eliot
