4.1Quick Start

This section gives experienced users an short overview of all steps required to install and configure NSR-ORA. It is a synopsis of the information presented in this chapter and the rest of the manual and is intended to help you to get NSR- ORA “up and running” quickly and easily.

In order to install NSR-ORA and prepare it for use you need to carry out the following steps:

1.Install NSR-ORA on the database computer (Enabler and NSR-ORA pack- age) using the relevant command for the respective platform. Refer to the sections “Licensing NSR-ORA”and “Installing NSR-ORA from CD”.

2.Now start the database (with startup or, in the case of OPS, with startup parallel) so that configure_nsrora can determine the tablespace names.

3.Call up the configure_networker tool and fill in the informations described in section “Parameters for configure_nsrora”.

4.Make sure that you have NSR administrator rights.

5.Call up the configure_networker tool (refer also to the section “Configuring NetWorker”).

When using a NetApp filer in order to perform NDMP-backups, you may have to define some NetWorker ressources manually (see “Configuring Net- Worker”).

6.Specify the Start time for the database group in NetWorker and set the attribute Autostart to Enabled (for further information, please refer to your NetWorker documentation).

7.Highlight the required data carriers for the database and the archiving monitor amon (see the manual NetWorker - Installing, Configuring and Operating).

8.Make sure that the database is in the archive mode using the command archive log list.
