Problem conclusion

  • In the ?Configuring global preferences? topic of IBM
    Documentation, the description for one of the global application
    preference setting in step 4 is incomplete and created confusion
    about the SQL database restore job operation.
    
    So, we have updated the description for the ?Rename SQL files
    and folders when database is restored in production mode?
    application preference as the following paragraph:
    ?Rename associated SQL database data and log files during a
    restore job in production mode. This option applies only when a
    new database name is provided during an SQL database restore
    job, and when database files of the same names exist in the same
    location.?
    
    The updated information will be published in IBM Documentation
    with the upcoming release for IBM Storage Protect Plus 10.1.16
    in the following topic URL:
    https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/spp/10.1.16?topic=environment-config
