Unable to apply logs on Sybase ASE

467 Views

Dear Experts,

I am in a quite funny situation. I need to restore a Sybase ASE DB to another host. The restore itself goes perfect. Then I am able to apply only the first log after the backup, but it refuses to take the next one:

Specified file 'dump device' is out of sequence. Current time stamp is May 8
2018 7:08:02:096PM while dump was from May 8 2018 7:08:03:096PM.

This sounds like a bad joke, that only Sybase is capable of !!! There is merely a 1 second difference !!! And I can't understand how this can happen...

Of course, other logs can't be be applied either, as the time difference is even greater:

Specified file 'dump device' is out of sequence. Current time stamp is May 8
2018 7:08:02:096PM while dump was from May 8 2018 7:10:02:096PM.

or

Specified file 'dump device' is out of sequence. Current time stamp is May 8
2018 7:08:02:096PM while dump was from May 8 2018 7:06:03:096PM.

PLEASE kindly help me to fix this somehow !! If there can be a fix at all...

I am certain that there is NO other log that I am missing...
