Integrating Oracle and Data Protector
Configuring the Integration
Chapter 112
See the Oracle Recovery Manager User’s Guide and References for
more information about different connection options.
See “Troubleshooting” on page 116 for details about how to check the
prerequisites listed above.
Note that the Data Protector Oracle integration uses RMAN for
backup and restore. RMAN connection to a target database requires a
dedicated server process. To ensure that RMAN does not connect to a
dispatcher when the target database is configured for a shared server,
the net service name used by RMAN must include
(SERVER_DEDICATED) in the CONNECT_DATA attribute of the
connection string.
• On Windows, if the Oracle target database and the Oracle recovery
catalog are installed on two different systems, the Data Protector
Inet service account on the system with the Oracle target database
installed must be configured as a domain account that is a member of
the Administrators group on both systems. For information on how to
change the Data Protector Inet service account, see the online
Help index: “changing Data Protector Inet account”.
• On OpenVMS, check the network alias names of the client. It is
recommended to provide the full client name (together with the alias)
to avoid non-detection of the Data Protector Oracle Integration agent.
• To successfully back up the recovery files residing in the flash
recovery area (Oracle 10g only), ensure that you have correctly
configured the flash recovery area.
• In case of Real Application Cluster (RAC), each node must have a
dedicated disk for storing archive logs. Such disks must be NFS
mounted on all other RAC nodes.
However, if the archive logs are not on a NFS mounted disk, you must
modify the archive log backup specification. See “Backup of Archive
Logs on RAC Cannot be Performed” on page 132.
Limitations
•The MAXPIECESIZE RMAN parameter option is not supported because
the restore of multiple backup pieces created during a backup is not
possible using the Data Protector Oracle integration.
