Recovery Manager with Oracle Standby Database

Recovery Manager 3.0.3/3.0.4 for Oracle User’s Guide

Once the backup process is completed, the NBU client executes the

bpend_notify.

script to perform virtual copy cleanup.

For an Oracle RMAN backup:

The NBU client executes the backup script

vcdba_nbu_dbbackup.sh

or

vcdba_nbu_archbackup.sh

, which must be specified in the Backup Selection List of the

NBU policy.

The backup script creates a virtual copy of the database or archive log destination, mounts

it on the backup host, starts up a cloned database in MOUNTED mode, then calls the RMAN

backup scripts (

vcdba_rman_dbbackup.sh

or

vcdba_rman_archbackup.sh

) to

backup the cloned database.

NOTE: The

bpstart_notify

and

bpend_notify

scripts are generated at

/

usr/openv/netbackup/bin

during the creation of the Recovery Manager

Configuration file. By default, the

bpstart_notify

script (for database backup

policy) will perform an online backup. If an offline or datafile backup is desired,

edit this file to set the value of BACKUP_MODE to 'offline' or 'datafile'

respectively. In addition, the database must be manually shutdown for offline

backup.

NOTE: The backup scripts (

vcdba_nbu_dbbackup.sh

and

vcdba_nbu_archbackup.sh

) and the RMAN backup scripts

(

vcdba_rman_dbbackup.sh

and

vcdba_rman_archbackup.sh

) are

generated at

/etc/3par/solutions/.ora.

during the creation of the Recovery Manager Configuration file. By default, the

vcdba_nbu_dbbackup.sh

script (for database backup policy) will perform an

online backup. If an offline or datafile backup is desired, edit this file to set the

value of BACKUP_MODE to 'offline' or 'datafile' respectively. In addition, the

database must be manually put in MOUNTED mode for offline backup.

NOTE: To perform automatic backup, RSH or SSH must have been configured for

root user as Veritas NetBackup always initiates a backup as root user.
