Creating an SAP /R3 Backup Specification for Manual

 

Balancing

 

To use manual balancing, you have to edit the SAP R/3 backup

 

specifications. The backup specifications are specified in the

 

/etc/opt/omni/server/barlist/sap directory (UNIX Cell Manager)

 

or in the <Data_Protector_home>\Config\server\Barlists\SAP

 

directory (Windows Cell Manager). In the backup specification, define

 

which backup set will be backed up to which device. Use the -restype

 

option followed by the ID numbers of the sets to be backed up by a

 

specific device.

Example

To back up three subsets identified by ID numbers 1, 3, and 4, using a

 

device named device2, specify the following:

 

DEVICE "DEVICE2"

 

{

 

-restype "1 3 4"

 

}

 

Note that the files in the specified subsets are thus backed up using only

 

the specified device. To optimize backup performance, the number of sets

 

for a device should be equal to the concurrency of the device.

 

Ensure that all the subsets are specified for backup using a specific

 

device, or they will not be backed up. To ensure that all the subsets are

 

backed up, even if you do not specify them for backup using a specific

 

device, configure one device without the -restypeoption. All the subsets

 

not configured for backup using a specific device will be backed up on

 

this device.

 

Save the backup specification before using it.

Example of

Suppose that you have two devices, Device_1, with concurrency 2, and

Configuration

Device_2, with concurrency 1. You also have the following manual

 

balance specified in the manual_balance section of the Data Protector

 

integration configuration on the Cell Manager in the

 

/etc/opt/omni/server/integ/config/SAP/<client_name>%<ORACLE_
