Integrating SAP DB/MaxDB and Data Protector

Integration Concept

SAP DB/MaxDB dbmcli. The sapdbbar.exe module issues dbmcli commands that configure SAP DB/MaxDB backup media (parallelism), configure sapdb_backint and then start the backup using

SAP DB/MaxDB dbmcli. SAP DB/MaxDB then starts the configured sapdb_backint component. For every SAP DB/MaxDB medium (pipe) sapdb_backint starts a DMA, which transfers the data from

SAP DB/MaxDB media (pipes) to Data Protector media. This procedure is the same for full, differential, and transactional backup. Additionally, if the configuration (including media specification and the backup history) is selected for backup, it is backed up directly by the sapdbbar.exe module and DMA. The list of configuration files to be backed up is retrieved through dbmcli.

See Figure 3-1 on page 258.

When running a backup using SAP DB/MaxDB utilities,

SAP DB/MaxDB media and pipes must be configured manually.

When a restore session is started, the Cell Manager starts the sapdbbar.exe module, which starts SAP DB/MaxDB dbmcli. The sapdbbar.exe module issues commands to SAP DB/MaxDB dbmcli to configure sapdb_backint and SAP DB/MaxDB backup media (parallelism). SAP DB/MaxDB then starts the configured sapdb_backint, which starts streaming data to media (pipes) that SAP DB/MaxDB created. For every SAP DB/MaxDB medium (pipe) the sapdb_backint starts a DMA, which transfers the data from Data Protector media to SAP DB/MaxDB media (pipes). If SAP DB/MaxDB configuration is being restored, it is the sapdbbar.exe module and DMA that perform the restore.

See Figure 3-1 on page 258.

When running a restore using SAP DB/MaxDB utilities, SAP DB/MaxDB media and pipes must be configured manually.
