Recovery Manager for Oracle User’s Guide

7.7.1 Starting Periodic Synchronization

To start periodic synchronization on a Remote Copy node:

1Right-click a Remote Copy node on the navigation tree and click Periodic Sync Virtual Volumes.

The Periodic Synchronization Virtual Volumes screen appears.

NOTE: Recovery Manager does not allow more than one periodic synchronization process for the same database at the same time.

2Depending on the setup of your database, select either Online (Hot) Backup or Offline (Cold) Backup and then click Finish.

After the periodic synchronization process is started, the command log view of the Recovery Manager GUI displays a status of started.

7.7.2 Verifying the Periodic Synchronization Process

When starting periodic synchronization on a Remote Copy node, you may wish to verify that the synchronization process is occurring.

XTo verify the periodic synchronization on a Remote Copy node, right-click the Remote Copy node where synchronization has started and click Periodic Sync Status.

A window appears displaying the status of the synchronization process.

7.7.3Removing the Recovery Manager Periodic Sync Lock

Recovery Manager does not permit more than one periodic synchronization process for the same database at a time. Recovery Manager uses the Periodic Sync Lock to prevent simultaneous synchronization processes from occurring on a single database.
