Maximum number of Virtual Copies allowed [h=help,q=quit]?
You will be prompted with this question if you did not set an expiration time for a Virtual Copy
in the previous question. Enter the maximum number of Virtual Copies that can be created for
the specified database. Once the maximum number of Virtual Copies for the database is
reached, Recovery Manager for Oracle removes the oldest Virtual Copy before creating a
new one.
The default maximum number is 500 read-only Virtual Copies for each volume.
•
Remove the oldest Virtual Copy when the maximum number of Virtual
Copy is reached [y=yes,n=no,q=quit]?
NOTE:
This feature requires the HP 3PAR Virtual Lock Software license.
You will be prompted with this question if you set the maximum number of Virtual Copies
allowed in the previous question. Enter n if you do not want to remove the oldest Virtual Copy
when maximum number of Virtual Copy is reached. Otherwise, enter y.
NOTE:
If the database volumes do not belong to any domain, then the retention time of the
read-only Virtual Copy cannot exceed the VVRetentionTimeMax value of the system. The
VVRetentionTimeMax
default value for the system is 14 days. If the database volumes belong
to a domain, then the retention time of the read-only Virtual Copy cannot exceed the
VVRetentionTimeMax
value of the domain, if set. The retention time cannot be removed or
reduced once it is set. The retention time can be extended by rmora_set command. The
VVRetentionTimeMax
value can be checked via the HP 3PAR Operating System Software CLI
commands showsys -param and showdomain -d.
