Troubleshooting Horizon and Information Portal Database Failures

You may store your Horizon and Information Portal databases in many different ways. For example, the Information Portal database may be on the same server as the Horizon database. Or, your databases may straddle 2 servers or even straddle two types of RDBMS (Horizon on Sybase and Information Portal on MS SQL).

Given that you are running two live databases side-by-side (and possible three databases with Community Resources), you may want to know what to do if either the Horizon database or the Information Portal database becomes corrupted and needs to be restored.

This section describes different scenarios in which you may have database problems and some recommendations on how to minimize the effects of these problems.
