NSR-ORA and NetApp Recovery
Selecting a tape backup the database recovery process is the same as the one
for a usual database recover performed by NSR-ORA (see also section
“Recovery Until Time with Logical Errors”).
If you specify a recovery using a snapshot NSR-ORA first tries to perform a
switchlog of the most recently created log files and then stops the database and
archivelog daemon. Subsequently NSR-ORA allows the administrator to
perform the recovery using the snap restore command. For every required filer
volume the following dialog appears:
Do you want to do a snap restore for the volume
/vol/mangan1 on filer netapp
The DB Files are on top of the volume but if there are other
files aside, they will also be resetted
(n|y) (default y) >
If the top level database directory is not equal to the mounting point the
warning created by NSR-ORA will be more urgent and in this case the
default answer is “n”.
With a snap restore selected NSR-ORA checks the relevant volume to see if the
archivelog files are stored on it. If so the following warning message is
displayed:
ATTENTION !!! ATTENTION !!! ATTENTION !!!
==================================== ============================
The Archivelog directory ’/netapp_oracl e/saparch’ is on the same
volume as the DB files you want to restore!
If you go on all current archivelog files will be overwrit ten.
Should I move the files or should I overwrite them?
1) copy the files
2) overwrite the files
3) abort the recover session
> 2
Are you really sure that you want to overwrite
the existent logfiles???
Be aware that the DB could be irreco verable if you overwrite
needed logfiles!
Overwrite? (y | n) > y
