Recovery Manager for Oracle User’s Guide

Recovery Manager saves an ACII control file and a binary control file for each created virtual copy in its repository. After a rollback, you may need to restore the control file in order to perform database recovery.

You must run this command as a super user from the backup host. To allow the Oracle Database Administrator (Oracle Owner) to run this command, an identical Oracle Database Administrator user must exist on the backup host. In addition, permission on the 3PAR Recovery Manager Installation and Repository directories must be changed appropriately.

OPTIONS

The following options are supported:

■-s <oracle_sid> - The instance SID of the primary database. For an RAC database, any instance SID can be specified.

■-p <primary_host> - The corresponding host name of the primary host where the specified Oracle database instance is running. The value of the primary host name must match the output of the hostname command.

■-t <timestamp> - The timestamp of a virtual copy form which to promote. The virtual copy name can be obtained using the vcdba_display command.

■-o [dataarch]

◆data - Promotes only the virtual copy’s datafile volumes back to their base virtual volumes.

◆arch - Promotes only the virtual copy’s archive log volumes back to their base virtual volumes.

■-v- Runs the command in verbose mode to display useful messages.

■-w- Promotes the read-write virtual copy instead of the read-only virtual copy back to its base. The default is to promote the read-only virtual copy.

■- f - Forces the promote operation to proceed even if the parent base volumes are currently in a Remote Copy group, as long as the Remote Copy group has not been started. If started, the promote will fail.
