RMAN Proxy Copy integration

Hi,
1. howto create the lib to call from RMAN Proxy copy
2. steps to configure the RMAN proxy copy with sample lib and commands.
Please help me for the above queries,
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
karthik

There's more than ONE OS,
there's more than ONE database version,
there's more than ONE proxy backup provider.
RMAN supports proxy backup, but the proxy comes from 3rd party media management layer. So contact your unknown provider for details.
About Proxy Copies
A proxy copy is a special type of backup in which RMAN turns over control of the data transfer to a media manager that supports this feature. The PROXY option of the BACKUP command specifies that a backup should be a proxy copy.
For each file that you attempt to back up using the BACKUP PROXY command, RMAN queries the media manager to determine whether it can perform a proxy copy. If the media manager cannot proxy copy the file, then RMAN uses conventional backup sets to perform the backup. An exception occurs when you use the PROXY ONLY option, which causes Oracle to issue an error message when it cannot proxy copy.
Oracle records each proxy-copied file in the control file. RMAN uses this data to resynchronize the recovery catalog. Use the V$PROXY_DATAFILE view to obtain the proxy copy information. Use the CHANGE PROXY command or DELETE PROXY command to change the status of or delete a proxy backup

  • Proxy copy functionality

    Hi,
    Can someone please help me to understand what a proxy copy in RMAN is? The functionality is supposed to have RMAn give the media management software control of the data transfer between storage devices and the data files on disk.
    What is the purpose of this? How is a proxy copy different from a regular backup?
    Please help!

    The proxy functionality was first introduced in Oracle8i Release 1 (8.1.5).  A proxy copy is a special type of backup, in which RMAN turns over control of the data transfer to a media manager that supports this feature. The PROXY option of the BACKUP command specifies that a backup should be a proxy copy.
    For each file that you attempt to back up using the BACKUP PROXY command, RMAN queries the media manager to determine whether it can perform a proxy copy. If the media manager cannot proxy copy the file, then RMAN uses conventional backup sets to perform the backup. An exception occurs when you use the PROXY ONLY option, which causes Oracle to issue an error message when it is unable to proxy copy.
    Prior to Oracle 10g, you could RMAN to perform proxy backups of data files and data file copies.  However, you could not perform proxy backup of archive log files or control file copies.  You can now use RMAN to perform proxy backups of archive log files.  You can use the rc_proxy_archivelog dictionary view to determine the proxy backups recorded in the catalog.

  • ABAP Proxy Error - Integration Builder address not maintained

    I intend to use ABAP proxy between R/3 (ECC 6.0) and XI (PI 7.0).
    On configuring the relevant connections, I run SPROXY and get the following error:
    Integration Builder address is not maintained in the Exchange profile (Connections)
    I have created the connx LCRSAPRFC & SAPSLDAPI from R/3 to PI but the connectivity does not work.
    On running the reports
    SPROX_CHECK_IFR_RESPONSE
    SPROX_CHECK_HTTP_COMMUNICATION
    SPROX_CHECK_IFR_ADDRESS
    SPROX_CHECK_IFR_CONNECTION
    My question is:
    What is the Program to be used in LCRSAPRFC & SAPSLDAPI? I have used LCRSAPRFC_<sys id of XI server>
    and SAPSLDAPI_<sys id of XI server>
    Should the XI Integration Builder address be maintained in R/3?
    If yes, is there any place where IB address can be maintained in R/3 (I believe there is no such thing as exchange profile in R/3. then how can IB address be maintained in R/3??...pls correct if I am wrong)
    If IB address of XI has to be maintained in R/3 then can anyone pls tell me how to do it?

    Just recheck the steps with this and come up with doubts then
    How do you activate ABAP Proxies?

  • RMAN Backup Copy format

    Hi,
    am using following rman block to take incremental backup copy for recover.
    run{
    allocate channel c1 type disk format 'd:\copy\%f';
    BACKUP INCREMENTAL LEVEL 1 FOR RECOVER OF COPY WITH TAG 'full_backup' DATABASE ;
    It creates backup under D:|COPY directory but the name of backup copy is file# of datafile. How can I take backup copy which has same name as actual data file i.e. users01.dbf?
    Thanks
    SAQ

    With an FRA defined (via DB_RECOVERY_FILE_DEST_SIZE and DB_RECOVERY_FILE_DEST), the command is simply
    backup incremental level 1 for recover of copy tag 'MY_TAG' database
    A FORMAT specifier is not required.

  • System copy:integration models altered

    Hi SCM experts,
    We have APO 4.1 connected to ECC system.Recently the QAS data is refreshed with PRD data and after that all CIF integration model variants in QAS are pointing to PRD system. There are more than 100 integration model variants and changing the logical system mnaualy to QAS client is taking long time.
    Is there any standrad report or t.code by means of which we can do a mass maintenance of these integration model variants ?

    Hi deeparai,
    You can change the name of logical system in ECC table CIF_IMOD. However, the integration models will not become active unless you generate them again (CFM1/2/3).
    Hope this helps in reducing manual work.

  • Cisco 4507R WCCP with blue coat SG 8000 as proxy server integration

    Dear All,
    I installed the blue coat on one of the vlan with users in diffwrent vlans. The core 4507R is used with L3 vlans as gateway for the respective vlan users. Now i need to configure both core switch and blue coat as proxy server so that all the users in different vlans access internet websites without configure the blue coat proxy address but the core switch would redirect the users request to the blue coat proxy server. I tried with latest IOS upgrade to the switch eventhen i could not get the cmds related to WCCP blue coat documents suggest to use in core switch to configure the proxy server of SG8000
    Could any one help me to solve this issue.

  • How to copy DB files from UNIX filesystem to ASM in RMAN?

    Hi,
    I have a cold backup copied from a RAC ASM by using RMAN to UNIX filesystem. I made it like this:
    RMAN> run
    copy datafile 1 to '/backup/PDAMLPF2/offline/system.306.715096785';
    copy datafile 2 to '/backup/PDAMLPF2/offline/undotbs1.260.715096755';
    Now, I need to restore (or copy) this cold backup into another RAC ASM system to create a DB. How can I do the copy back?
    Thanks for advise!

    If you are using 11.1 or above you can use asmcmd cp command otherwise use dbms_file_transfer package. But keep in mind that since you are not using RMAN in any of those stages you will need to modify controlfile anyhow.

  • Can we take rman backup image copy to multiple location

    Hi All,
    We are planing to move database from old storage to new storage on the same server.
    planing to use RMAN image copy to copy the db files from old storage to new storage and then switch database to copy.
    Currently dbfiles are on /u01, /u02, /u03, /u04 and we are planing to move to new storage /u05, /u06/, /u07
    Is there any way that i can copy all the dbfiles to /u05,/u06,/u07
    Backup as copy database format '/u05
    As i know i can move to single location. Is there any way copy to multiple location using image copy.
    Please suggest.
    Thanks

    Hi
    I will try the below command.
    BACKUP AS COPY
      DB_FILE_NAME_CONVERT ('/u01/..','/u05/...','/u02/...,','/u06/..')
    database;
    I believe this will work.
    Thanks

  • Error connecting to RMAN

    Ive been tumbling with this poblem for a while, and have finally reached the point where i decided to try you folks out :)
    Im setting up backup on a 10.1 RAC installation on AIX 5.3, using netbackup through libobk.a64 connection to oracle.
    I should mention that like one time in twenty (or so) i manage to get a good connection and make a backup without failure, but mostly when i try to connect to RMAN I get the following error:

  • How to check RMAN backup report or log

    Hi Guys,
    I have RMAN schduled to backup my database daily.
    Please what are the steps to check the report of the backup to see what was actually backed up and if it backup up ok
    Thanks

    Use "LIST BACKUP" to display information about backup sets, proxy copies, and image copies. With LIST command you can list the following:
    - Backups and copies that do not have the status AVAILABLE in the RMAN repository
    - Backups and copies of datafiles that are available and can possibly be used in a restore operation
    - Specified archived logs, backup sets, backup pieces, control file copies, datafile copies, and proxy copies
    - Backups and copies restricted by tag, completion time, recoverability, or device
    - Incarnations of a specified database or of all databases known to the repository
    - Stored scripts in the recovery catalog
    Examples on how to use LIST command are listed below:
    RMAN> LIST BACKUP;
    RMAN> LIST EXPIRED BACKUP;
    RMAN> LIST BACKUP OF DATABASE;
    RMAN> LIST BACKUP SUMMARY;
    RMAN> LIST BACKUP BY FILE;
    RMAN> LIST ARCHIVELOG ALL;
    RMAN> LIST COPY OF DATABASE ARCHIVELOG ALL;
    RMAN> LIST COPY OF DATAFILE 1, 2, 3;
    RMAN> LIST BACKUP OF ARCHIVELOG FROM SEQUENCE 1437;
    RMAN> LIST BACKUPSET OF DATAFILE 1;You can use the VALIDATE keyword of the BACKUP command to do the following:
    - Check datafiles for physical and logical corruption
    - Confirm that all database files exist and are in the correct locations
    For example, you can validate that all database files and archived redo logs can be backed up by running a command as follows:
    RMAN> BACKUP VALIDATE DATABASE ARCHIVELOG ALL;I suggest you read Oracle® Database Backup and Recovery Manuals:

  • RETENTION POLICY in RMAN question

    Is a good practice to set up a RETENTION POLICY for the full backups (level 0) and another RETENTION POLICY for the incremental backups (level 1)? If yes, why and how could I do this ?
    Thanks for your responses,
    Christine.

    It is from the doc
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/backup.102/b14191/rcmconc1007.htm#sthref279
    From the perspective of a retention policy, a datafile backup is a full or level 0 backup of an individual datafile or control file. It does not matter whether the backup is a datafile image copy, a proxy copy, or part of a backup set. For datafile copies and proxy copies, if RMAN determines that the copy or proxy copy is not needed, then the copy or proxy copy can be deleted. For datafile backups in backup sets, RMAN cannot delete the backup set until all of the individual datafile backups within the backup set are obsolete.
    Besides affecting full or level 0 datafile and control file backups, the retention policy affects archived redo logs and level 1 incremental backups. First, RMAN decides which datafile and control file backups are obsolete. Then, RMAN considers as obsolete all archived logs and incremental level 1 backups that are not needed to recover the oldest datafile or control file backup that must be retained.

  • Never worked on Non-RMAN Backup tools

    I have never worked on Non-RMAN backup tools. I have only worked on databases which are below 1 TB in size. If you have an Oracle 10GR2 Database which is 5 TB in size, would you still recommend RMAN for it?
    Do third party tools use RMAN internally ie integrated to it?

    My production DB is 800gb in size and it takes 3.5 hours to take a full backup in compressed mode. This means , it will take around 15 hours to backup a 5TB database !!
    Hi Jack,
    You are not obliged to do full backups with RMAN. You can use this strategy for example :
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/backup.102/b14192/bkup004.htm#sthref412
    You will have a fist full backup (image copy) to do but after that only incremental backups will be done. Much space is needed of course but it works well.
    Best regards
    Phil
