Mounting a database virtual copy involves the following actions:
■
Creates a read-write virtual copy the original read-only virtual copy.
■
Imports the read-write virtual copy to the backup host.
■
Imports snapshot VERTIAS VxVM disk groups and starts up all corresponding snapshot
VxVM volumes if the database files reside on VxVM volumes.
■
For virtual copies from an ASM-managed database, based on the different ASM database
releases on the backup host, the operation is different.
◆
For ASM versions 10.2.0.5 or 11.0.1.7, if an ASM instance exists and is up on the backup
host, then all diskgroups from the virtual copy are mounted in this ASM instance.
Otherwise, an ASM instance is started up on the backup host, and all ASM disk groups in
the virtual copy are mounted.
◆
For ASM versions lower than the releases mentioned in the previous bullet, if an ASM
instance is up on the backup host, the mount utility checks if there is any mounted
diskgroup. If none, the ASM instance is shut down, otherwise, the mount utility gives an
error and exits. After that, a new ASM instance is started up and all diskgroups
contained in the current virtual copy are mounted.
■
Mounts all snapshot file systems if the database files reside on file systems.
You must run this command as a super user from the backup host. To allow the Oracle
Database Administrator (Oracle Owner) to run this command, an identical Oracle Database
Administrator user must exist on backup host. In addition, permission on the 3PAR Recovery
Manager Installation and Repository directories must be changed appropriately.
OPTIONS
The following options are supported:
■
-s
- The instance SID of the primary database. For an RAC database, any
instance SID can be specified.
■
-p
- The corresponding host name of the primary host where the
specified Oracle database instance is running. The value of the primary host name must
match the output of the
hostname
command.
■
-t
- The timestamp of a virtual copy. It is also the name of the virtual copy.
The virtual copy name can be obtained using the
vcdba_display
command.
