Oracle Secure Backup Module for the Amazon cloud
I want to backup a 11g r2 database in the amazon cloud s3 service. I have on premise database
11g r2 on windows 2008 r2 64 bit OS.
Supported platforms for Oracle Secure Backup Module for the cloud are Windows 32 bit. linux 32 bit and 64bit. Does that mean I cannot use this on my Windows box. Cloud module seems like java jar files which should run on Windows 32 bit as well as 64 bit.

Can the Oracle Secure Backup handle 64-bit inode numbers received from NDMP
How many bytes will Oracle Secure Backup store for inode numbers received from NDMP file history? Can the Oracle Secure Backup handle 64-bit inode numbers?
Thanks

RMAN Backup to tape using Oracle Secure Backup
I am trying to take 11g R2 (11.2.0.3) database backup using RMAN. I am using Oracle Secure Backup for configuring virtual tape library and virtual tape drive.
Whenever, I am running the RMAN backup script it simply hangs. While checking the backup job status from Oracle Secure Backup web interface, the job status are displaying 'pending resource availability'.
On, furthur investigating the job, the following error message are displayed,
" Dispatching job to run on oradb. Drive or volume on which mount attempted is unusable".
Library and Tape Creation:
mkdev -t library -o -S 4 -a oradb:/vlib -v vlib
mkdev -t tape -o -a ora11:/vt -v -l vlib -d 1 vt
Not able to fix this error. Need help
Message was edited by: 799814There is a VTL: http://mhvtl-linux-virtual-tape-library-community-forums.966029.n3.nabble.com/
really work well with OSB 10.3.0.3 64bit, the version of it, fully tested by me , is 1.2
The installation guide of it here:
mh virtual tape & library system.
Instructions assume reader is familiar with the kernel build process.
There are two sections of code to build.
- The kernel module
- The user-space daemons.
Kernel module mhvtl:
==================
1) Make sure the kernel-devel package to match your running kernel is installed.
e.g.
RedHat AS 4 & 5:
# rpm -qa|grep kernel
kernel-2.6.9-34.0.1.EL
kernel-devel-2.6.9-34.0.1.EL
kernel-2.6.9-5.EL
kernel-devel-2.6.9-5.EL
kernel-utils-2.4-13.1.80
SLES 9 & 10:
# rpm -qa|grep kernel
2) Extract the mhvtl source code.
# tar xvfz mhvtl-2012-04-04.tgz
3) Change directory into the kernel driver source.
# cd mhvtl-1.2/kernel/
# make
# make install
User space daemons:
===================
Pre-req for a running mhvtl
- sg3_utils (http://sg.danny.cz/sg/sg3_utils.html)
Pre-req to build/compile userspace:
- zlib-devel
* To build an RPM
===============
cp mhvtl-YYYY-MM-DD.tar.gz /usr/src/packages/SOURCE/
cd /usr/src/packages/SOURCE
rpmbuild -tb mhvtl-YYYY-MM-DD.tar.gz
<wait for rpm build to complete>
rpm -Uvh /usr/src/packages/RPMS/<cpu type>/mhvtl-1.2-z.<cpu type>.rpm
(The rpm install will create system group & accounts vtl)
- Note: For RedHat, replace 'packages' with 'redhat'
* To build from tar archive (Debian / Ubuntu):
============================================
apt-get install lsscsi
apt-get install sg3_utils
To limit damage that may occur by wayward daemons, I highly recommend creating
a group and user called 'vtl'
# /usr/sbin/groupadd --system vtl
# /usr/sbin/useradd --system -c "Vitrual Tape Library" -d /opt/vtl -g vtl -m vtl
Now build user space daemons:
From the parent directory where you extracted the source.
# cd mhvtl-1.2
Build the binaries
# make
Install the rc script into /etc/init.d/ and binaries to /usr/local/bin/
# make install
Start daemons:
/etc/init.d/mhvtl start
Test:
Note: Make sure the 'mtx' & 'lsscsi' utilities are installed
The virtual devices are attached to HBA #5 in this example.
e.g.
# lsscsi -g

Installation of Oracle Secure Backup 10.3.0.3 on RedHat EL6.2 x8664
Hi , My comany has got a new server to run RHEL6.2 x8664,
and Oracle Secure Backup 10.3.0.3 should be hosted in that machine.
when i begin installation , the installer quickly exit with errors:
Welcome to Oracle's setup program for Oracle Secure Backup. This
program loads Oracle Secure Backup software from the CD-ROM to a
filesystem directory of your choosing.
This CD-ROM contains Oracle Secure Backup version 10.3.0.3.0_LINUX64.
Please wait a moment while I learn about this host...mach_arch: Undefined variable.
ERROR: can't determine sufficient info about this machine to continue.
WHAT'S THE MATTER OF IT?OSB 10.3 is not supported on Oracle Linux 6. The steps you've listed in that post render your installation unsupported.
You should install OSB 10.4.0.3.0 which is fully supported.
Thanks

Oracle Secure Backup datasets Rman backup
Hi all,
I want use the scheduler on OSB, to launch a shell script to backup a database by rman.
I made a test, and the backup executed well. I created a dataset, like that:
include host hostn01
include path /u01/app/oracle/dummy
after backup "/u01/app/oracle/admin/scripts/rman/full_db.sh"
Script full_db.sh as:
su - oracle -c "/u01/app/oracle/admin/scripts/rman/level0_db_tape.sh"
The script above invoke the rman backup full, and finish without any errors.
My question. It is possible to have a dataset without the include path for a dummy dir? like that or similar?
include host hostn01
"/u01/app/oracle/admin/scripts/rman/full_db.sh"
The OSB version is 10.4.3
Cumps,Hi
You can use RMAN for Backup and Restore using Oracle Secure Backup. But the following has to met before the implementation.
1. RMAN must connect through pre-authorised user
2. pre-authorised OSB user's OSB class must have database backup and restore rights
3. OSB user permissions must match those of Oracle Instance.
Please check all the above....
Thanks

Unable to see Oracle Secure Backup Selections in EM (10g-10.2.0.1)
I cannot see the Oracle Secure Backup choices on the maintenance tab page.
I see Backup/Recovery and Backup/Recovery Settings but no third column Oracle Secure Backup.
I logon to EM as SYS.
Any ideas ?
ThanksIf you go to the maintenance tab on your EM, are there a couple of links under "Oracle Secure Backup" heading. I don't have this showing on my page. If I look at any of the Oracle demo pages I see it.
Like I said it is a feature of 10gR2....which I have. -

Oracle Secure Backup Cloud Module for Amazon S3 -
Licensing for Oracle Secure Backup Cloud Module
My company is looking at moving from our internal tape backup to Oracle (Cloud) Database Backup. We have questions about costs for licensing the Oracle Secure Backup Cloud Module. We have been using Oracle Secure Backup Express Edition and would like to know if there are additional API/License costs for using Oracle Secure Backup Cloud Module in additional to the $33/TB per month cost listed on the Oracle Cloud Database Backup page at https://cloud.oracle.com/database_backup?tabID=1394421701419.
We have spoken with 6 different sales and technical reps at Oracle and at Oracle Cloud and none have been able to provide a clear answer for this question. We have been directed to this forum, by the staff at Oracle Cloud.
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.I don't know about this tape not appearing to the OS, some other OS related documentation would help you there. This may be due to the fact that this is a removable disk storage device, rather than actual tape.
However I have checked the OSB tape support matrix and this device is not listed, so this is not supported for use with OSB.
Thanks

Oracle Secure Backup with partitioned SL3000
A Client has a partitioned SL3000 tape library with two Access Expansion Modules, T10000D drives, LTO6 drives and dual robotics.
Three Partitions - one for SAMFS including one AEM - this partition works fine.
Two partitions created for OSB - one for LTO6 and media and the other for T10000D and media due to mixed media not supported in OSB.
OSB 12.1 has been implemented, device configuration has been completed and verified. Library inventory completes successfully, when a test backup is started no media mounts to the tape drives. MTX utility for Linux has been implemented for test purposes - successful mounts using MTX was performed - a library inventory was then done using OSB and completed successfully identifying the media mounted in the drive that was initiated by MTX, a successful unload was then done using OSB.
We are unable to mount media using OSB.
Here is a output of devdump from OSB:

Hi,
I am currently implementing Oracle Secure Backup. My environment is this:
OS: Windows Server 2003 (32Bit) for all servers
Database: Oracle Database 11.2.0.1.0
Tape Library: IBM-ULT 3580-TD4
I will have to configure 2 machines to work with OSB: server01 and server02.
Server01:
This serves as the client, admin, mediaserver
Server02:
This will serve as the client, admin
When I log in to Server01, in the device manager, I can see the Tape Drives (no warnings, no questions marks) so I think it's good.
When I log in to Server02, in the device manager, there are no Tape Drives seen. Is is ok or shall i configure the IBM Tape drives to be also accessible since this is just the client, admin host?
Also I have noticed that when I installed the OSB in Server02 (client,admin), when I am on the SCSI Devices, i dont see any tape device (since its not in the device manager). Because of this i cannot start OSB Services and cannot add this host to the mediaserver.
Also, I am having issues Configuring the Library and the devices. I have read the official documentation completely but i think its very general and it does not present the detailed step-by-step process in installing and configuring OSB.
When I issued: lsdev -lvg in the mediaserver , I can read an error: Warning: bus info unknown or drive not installed.
Help is very much appreciated. Thanks a lot guys!I have resolved the issue. Ill close this thread. :))

Error while starting Oracle Secure Backup Service on Windows
Hi,
I've installed an Oracle 10gR2 database, and an OSB on a Windows XP (SP2) machine, and when trying to start the service (Oracle Secure Backup Services) I got the following error :
"Unknown():Unable to load dynamic library'./php_osb.dll'-The operating system cannot run %1"
This error message pops up 2-3 times, and I cannot login to OSB web page.
My database works ok, but I cannot "test" OSB
Anyone else had the same problem? Any ideas ?
Thanks,
PanagiotisHi-- could you please describe your administrative domain?
I need to know the operating systems on each of the
clients and the OSB admin server. Also, does 'obtool' CLI
tool work? Do any of the machines act as an apache webserver
for another application? Is there any other backup service
running on any of the machines?
thanks,
Judy
I noticed that when re-installing the OSB without the
Administrative Server (only Media Server and Client)
I got no errors at all (but still cannot connect from
another Administratice Server to my machine) -
Hello,
We are planning to install and configure Oracle Secure Backup Version 10.4 in Linux server. I had searched documents and i have not find any relevant steps to install and configure in OEL 6.2.
Can anyone please suggest me how to install and configure OSB.
Regards,
AnilHi
Installing OSB on Oracle Linux is just the same as installing on any other supported linux and is described in Installation and Configuration guide. Just stick with the directories and procedure described in install guide and you should be fine.
For media server choose a physical host due to performance considerations. I think it is mentioned in docs somewhere.

Oracle RAC and Oracle Secure Backup Express
I am building a new RAC environment - 7-Nodes on Linux.
We are very interested in reviewing Oracle Secure Backup, possible Oracle Secure Backup Express.
My understanding about Oracle Secur eBackup Express is it is licensed "free" as long as you are working with a single tape drive.
Does anyone know - does this apply to RAC as well?
ThanksPlease refer to the OSB licensing document for
specific differences between OSB-XE and OSB:
http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B32520_01/doc/
license.101/b25528/toc.htm
In general, we recommend you backup each RAC node to
insure all local files are protected which would mean
the OSB-XE edition would not be recommended since
OSB-XE is backup of one server.Thank you - I will review this.
