Creating a Storage Checkpoint Allocation policy
▼ To create a Storage Checkpoint allocation policy
Use the dbed_ckptpolicy command as follows:
$ /opt/VRTS/bin/dbed_ckptpolicy -S ORACLE_SID \
-o create -p ckpt_policy
Note A partial policy indicates that the Storage Checkpoint allocation policy does not include all
the file systems used by the database.
Example
In the following example, the database name is PROD and the Storage Checkpoint allocation
policy that is created is named ckpt_sample.
$ dbed_ckptpolicy -S PROD -o create -p ckpt_sample
Output similar to the following is displayed.
File System: /mvsfs/v2 (MVS volumes: mvsv4,mvsv5)
Assigned Data Policy: NONE (MVS Volumes: N/A)
Assigned Meta Data Policy: NONE (MVS Volumes: N/A)
Please enter the volume name(s), separated by space, for the policy
ckpt_sample [skip,quit]: mvsv4
File System: /mvsfs/v1 (MVS volumes: mvsv1,mvsv2,mvsv3)
Assigned Data Policy: NONE (MVS Volumes: N/A)
Assigned Meta Data Policy: NONE (MVS Volumes: N/A)
Please enter the volume name(s), separated by space, for the policy
ckpt_sample [skip,quit]: mvsv2
The following information will be used to create policy ckpt_sample
ckpt_sample /mvsfs/v2 mvsv4
ckpt_sample /mvsfs/v1 mvsv2
Assigning a Storage Checkpoint Allocation policy
You can use either of the following methods to assign an allocation policy to a Storage Checkpoint:
◆ Use the dbed_ckptpolicy command to assign allocation policies to an existing storage
checkpoint.
◆ Use [ -p ckpt_data_policy[,ckpt_metadata_policy]] option in
dbed_ckptcreate command to supply policies when executed.
