To verify that a Storage Checkpoint is error-free
1
As oracle user, create and mount a Storage Checkpoint by issuing the following
commands:
$ /opt/VRTS/bin/dbed_ckptcreate -S PROD1 -H $ORACLE_HOME\
-o online
Storage Checkpoint Checkpoint_1244130973 created.
$ mkdir /tmp/testckpt
$ /opt/VRTS/bin/dbed_ckptmount -S PROD1\
-c Checkpoint_1244130973 -m /tmp/testckpt -o rw
Creating Storage Checkpoint on /tmp/testckpt/oradata with name
Checkpoint_1244130973_wr001
If the specified mount point directory does not exist, then the dbed_ckptmount
command creates it before mounting the Storage Checkpoint, as long as the
Oracle DBA user has permission to create it.
2
Examine the contents of the Storage Checkpoint:
$ ls -l /tmp/testckpt/oradata/PROD1
