Integrating Oracle and Data Protector

Configuring the Integration

If the recovery catalog was selected, util_oracle8.pl starts the Oracle RMAN command, which registers the target database in the recovery catalog.

Information about the Oracle database’s structure is transferred to the recovery catalog from the Oracle database’s control files.

Checking the Configuration

You can check the configuration of an Oracle database after you have created at least one backup specification for the database. If you use the Data Protector CLI, a backup specification is not needed.

Using the Data Protector GUI

1.In the Context List, select Backup.

2.In the Scoping Pane, expand Backup Specifications and then Oracle Server. Click the backup specification to display the server with the database to be checked.

3.Right-click the server and click Check configuration.

IMPORTANT	On UNIX, it is possible that although the GUI check returns a successful
	result, the backup still fails. This can happen if the backup owner is not
	the Oracle user root or the Oracle user that is identified as described in
	“Configuring Oracle Users on UNIX and OpenVMS” on page 21.

Using the Data Protector CLI

1.UNIX only: Log in to the Oracle server system as the Oracle user or as user root.

2.From the directory:

Windows: <Data_Protector_home>\bin

HP-UX and Solaris: /opt/omni/lbin

Other UNIX: /usr/omni/bin/

OpenVMS: OMNI$ROOT:[BIN] run:
