Use CreateMigrateTask to restore backup files from OSS to SQL Server - ApsaraDB RDS - Alibaba Cloud - ApsaraDB RDS

Restores a self-managed SQL Server backup file from Object Storage Service (OSS) to an ApsaraDB RDS for SQL Server instance to migrate data to the cloud.

Operation description

Applicable DPI engine

ApsaraDB RDS for SQL Server

Before you begin

Upload self-managed SQL Server backup data to OSS.

Limits

Cross-account data replication is not supported. For example, you cannot migrate a backup file from OSS under Alibaba Cloud account A to an ApsaraDB RDS for SQL Server instance under Alibaba Cloud account B.
To migrate data across accounts, first copy the OSS data from source account A to an OSS bucket under target account B. Make sure that the OSS data and the ApsaraDB RDS for SQL Server instance belong to the same Alibaba Cloud account before you call the operation described in this topic to create a migration node.

Test

RAM authorization

The table below describes the authorization required to call this API. You can define it in a Resource Access Management (RAM) policy. The table's columns are detailed below:

Action: The actions can be used in the Action element of RAM permission policy statements to grant permissions to perform the operation.
API: The API that you can call to perform the action.
Access level: The predefined level of access granted for each API. Valid values: create, list, get, update, and delete.
Resource type: The type of the resource that supports authorization to perform the action. It indicates if the action supports resource-level permission. The specified resource must be compatible with the action. Otherwise, the policy will be ineffective.
- For APIs with resource-level permissions, required resource types are marked with an asterisk (*). Specify the corresponding Alibaba Cloud Resource Name (ARN) in the Resource element of the policy.
- For APIs without resource-level permissions, it is shown as All Resources. Use an asterisk (*) in the Resource element of the policy.
Condition key: The condition keys defined by the service. The key allows for granular control, applying to either actions alone or actions associated with specific resources. In addition to service-specific condition keys, Alibaba Cloud provides a set of common condition keys applicable across all RAM-supported services.
Dependent action: The dependent actions required to run the action. To complete the action, the RAM user or the RAM role must have the permissions to perform all dependent actions.

Request parameters

Parameter	Type	Required	Description	Example
DBInstanceId	string	Yes	The instance ID. You can call DescribeDBInstances to query the instance ID.	rm-uf6wjk5****
DBName	string	Yes	The name of the destination database.	testDB
BackupMode	string	Yes	The type of the cloud migration task. Valid values: FULL: performs a restore operation by using a full backup file. This value is applicable to first-time migrations or full data recovery scenarios. UPDF: restores incremental data by using an incremental backup file or log file. This value is applicable to incremental synchronization scenarios based on an existing full backup.	FULL
IsOnlineDB	string	Yes	Specifies whether to bring the restored database online so that users can access it. Valid values: True: Brings the database online. False: Does not bring the database online. Note For SQL Server 2008 R2, this value is always True. When IsOnlineDB is set to True, BackupMode must be set to FULL. When IsOnlineDB is set to False, BackupMode must be set to UPDF.	True
CheckDBMode	string	No	The consistency check method after the database is brought online. This parameter takes effect only when IsOnlineDB is set to True. Valid values: SyncExecuteDBCheck: synchronously performs a database check. This value is applicable to scenarios that require high data consistency. AsyncExecuteDBCheck: asynchronously performs a database check. This value provides higher performance but may delay the detection of potential issues. Default value: AsyncExecuteDBCheck (compatible with SQL Server 2008 R2).	AsyncExecuteDBCheck
OssObjectPositions	string	No	The information about the OSS file. The value consists of the following three parts separated by colons (:): OSS endpoint: oss-ap-southeast-1.aliyuncs.com. OSS bucket name: rdsmssqlsingapore. Backup file name on OSS: autotest_2008R2_TestMigration_FULL.bak. Note This parameter is required for SQL Server versions later than SQL Server 2008 R2.	oss-ap-southeast-1.aliyuncs.com:rdsmssqlsingapore:autotest_2008R2_TestMigration_FULL.bak
OSSUrls	string	No	The shared URL of the backup file on OSS (URL-encoded). If multiple URLs exist, separate them with vertical bars (\|) before encoding, and then pass the encoded value. Note This parameter is required for SQL Server 2008 R2.	check_cdn_oss.sh www.******.mobi
MigrateTaskId	string	No	The migration task ID. Valid values: When BackupMode is set to FULL, leave this parameter empty (compatible with SQL Server 2008 R2). When BackupMode is set to UPDF, set this parameter to the ID of the corresponding FULL task. You can call DescribeMigrateTasks to query the task ID.	None
