Note dbed_ckptcreate command automaticlly assigns the policies when the storage
checkpoint is created.
▼ To assign an allocation policy to an existing Storage Checkpoint
The following procedure uses dbed_ckptpolicy to assign an allocation policy to an existing
Storage Checkpoint. This example uses PROD as the database name and Checkpoint_1096060202
as a sample Storage Checkpoint.
1. Create an online Storage Checkpoint for database PROD.
$ dbed_ckptcreate -S PROD -H ORACLE_HOME -o online
As a result, Checkpoint_1096060202 is created.
2. Assign a Storage Checkpoint policy to the Checkpoint_1096060202.
$ dbed_ckptpolicy -S PROD -n -o assign -c Checkpoint_1096060202 \
-p ckpt_data,ckpt_metadata
3. Display the details of the Storage Checkpoint allocation policy assigned to
Checkpoint_1096060202.
$ dbed_ckptpolicy -S PROD -n -o display -c Checkpoint_1096060202
Output similar to the following is displayed:
Storage Checkpoint File System Data Policy Meta Data Policy
------------------ ------------ ------------ ------------------
Checkpoint_1096060202 /mvsfs/v2 ckpt_data ckpt_metadata
Checkpoint_1096060202 /mvsfs/v1 ckpt_data ckpt_metadata
▼ To assign an allocation policy to a new Storage Checkpoint
1. Use dbed_ckpcreate to assign an allocation policy to a new Storage Checkpoint.
$ dbed_ckptcreate -S PROD -H -o online -p ckpt_data,ckpt_metadata
As a result, a Storage Checkpoint allocation policy is assigned to Checkpoint_1096060122,
which is a new Storage Checkpoint.
2. Display the details of the Storage Checkpoint allocation policy assigned to checkpoint
1096060122.
$ dbed_ckptpolicy -D PROD -n -o display -c Checkpoint_1096060122
Output similar to the following is displayed:
