Backup and Restore Of Tru64 Cluster Server

HP OpenView Storage Data Protector
5.1.3 SAP Backup
1. Install the Data Protector Oracle Agent on the shared disk in the cluster. (as
described above in section 3.0)
2. Add the cluster nodes in your Data Protector Cell Manager, and now you
can add the Virtual Cluster Name using import client option and enabled
Virtual host in the window. Now Data Protector can access the data in the
cluster on a clusterwide basis using the Virtual hostname of the Cluster.
3. Create 3 additional links before starting the backup (assuming ORACLE_SID
is in lower case).
ln –s /sapfiles/admin/dbs/initsap.dba initSAP.dba
ln –s /sapfiles/admin/dbs/initsap.ora initSAP.ora
ln –s /sapfiles/admin/dbs/initsap.sap init SAP.sap
4. Before taking a backup using RMAN Channels Integrate the Data Protector
library with the Oracle library as described below:
a. Shutdown the database
b. Change directory to $ORACLE_HOME/lib
c. Link the DP library to the Oracle library using the command:
ln –s /opt/omni/lib/ libob2oracle8_64bit.sl libobk.sl
d. Startup the database instance
5. Data Protector is able to access the SAP database after the above
configuration has done. Whenever you take a backup it actually connects
the primary node and takes the backup of the Clusterwide database that
resides in the shared disk.
