Integrating Oracle and Data Protector

Configuring the Integration

Cluster-Aware Clients

If you intend to use the Data Protector CLI, set the Data Protector environment variable OB2BARHOSTNAME to the virtual server name. Set the variable on the Oracle Server system as follows:

Windows: set OB2BARHOSTNAME=<virtual_server_name>

UNIX: export OB2BARHOSTNAME=<virtual_server_name>

RAC: Configure an Oracle database on every node from where you want to run backups and restores.

HP-UX with RAC: If you want to use virtual hostname, create an MC/ServiceGuard package containing only the virtual IP and the virtual hostname parameters and distribute it among the RAC nodes.

	Linking Oracle with the Data Protector Oracle
	Integration Media Management Library (MML) on
	UNIX
	To use the Data Protector Oracle integration, you need to manually link
	the Oracle server software and MML on the Data Protector Oracle
	Server system.
	MML is invoked by the Oracle server when it needs to write to or read
	from devices using Data Protector.
IMPORTANT	After uninstalling the Data Protector Oracle integration on an Oracle
	server system, the Oracle server software is still linked to MML. You
	must re-link the Oracle binary to remove this link. If this is not done, the
	Oracle server cannot be started after the integration has been removed.
	See “Using Oracle After Removing the Data Protector Oracle Integration
	on UNIX and OpenVMS Systems” on page 112 for information on
	removing the integration link.
	MC/ServiceGuard: When linking Oracle with MML, link it on all nodes.
	On Oracle Server systems, MML is located in the directory:
	HP-UX and Solaris: /opt/omni/lib
	Other UNIX: /usr/omni/lib
