VSS Agent for Oracle 10g ?

Hi there,
I have SAP NW2004s, Windows 2003 server 64bit, Oracle 10g
4 partition with 1 hdd, C for OS, D for SAP application E for system and oracle logs+archived, F for only database files
We are trying to get backup in extrinal HDD 3TB HDD... through Symantic exec backup utility ver. 12
C and D drivers are backup fine, but sometime when server very busy and symantic start full backup for E and D drive database shutdown... sap instance is fine, but only DB instance is stoped
We are not using Symantec Agent software, is there any other software can help for that for-exmaple VSS for oracle 10g... if yes, where may i get this software any link?
Why we are not using BR tools:
1 - as i maintion before when I select "E" drive which is all logs files located symantec stoped db instance
2 - in case if i am taking backup from brtools full backup online + archived so its only take database backup + archived, not all others structure in case hard-drive failer, and data restore from symantec so its will be ok with C drive and D drive, but its nohting resotre for E and D
when I try to restore from oracle brtools to restore its getting an error for missing structure in E
so thats why I am looking only one solution either perfect symantec with online backup
please give me some advised
Thanks

Hi,
Please use the standard & reliable Backup/Restore methods for any DB, to avoid more headache while Backup/Restore Operations.
Please refer [this thread|Re: Need some advise]. it will attend your most of questions. Some other alternatives (without using Backup agent) are mentioned there.
If you use Backup Agent to perform any DB backup, then It will be reliable method to perform Backup/Restore operations of DB.
With BR*tools u can also perform Non-Database Backup. Please refer [this link|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_NW04/helpdata/en/0c/cd271365debc42bef96ac7fd907787/frameset.htm] and other relative links.
If you have configured the Backup Exec utility with Oracle agent on the DB server, then you can perform Online Backup by deselecting "Perform the backup offline" option withing that Oracle Backup Job properties.

  • How to configure SNMP agent for Oracle 10g

    Hello,
    I've installed oracle 10g in a Windows 2000 SP4 and I want to monitor database using SNMP.
    I've already installed Windows SNMP agent but I haven't any idea how to configure Oracle in order to grant SNMP monitoring.
    What should I do?
    Is Oracle database ready to be monitored via SNMP by default?
    Thanks in advance for your help.
    Regards,
    Carles

    Hello,
    Thanks for your message.
    In fact, I already found this doc in oracle, but it just show executables I have to install and my question can I install these executables.
    I've already installed Windows SNMP agent, configured and testedwith disk space checkings, but it doesn't work fine with Oracle.
    I launched Oracle Universal Installer and I checked Installed Products, but I haven't found how to install SNMP agents for oracle.
    How can I add Oracle Peer Master Agent and Encapsulator to my oracle installation?
    Thanks again for your help.

  • SNMP FOR ORACLE 10G?

    Hi all!
    i am trying to configure snmp with oracle 10g so that i can monitor oracle from some network management system like tivoli, spectrum etc.
    i checked in my $ORACLE_HOME/network , but there is no snmp directory ...nor does it have peer. Do i need to run some script to create the snmp directories or there is another path for the
    CONFIG.master
    CONFIG.encap
    start_peer
    files??? Please let me know if someone has configured that???
    Also, how do you test whether the agent is running on the server or not??

    Hi,
    I'm trying to configure snmp for oracle 10g on Linux using OEM agents.
    I followed all the steps mentioned in:
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B16240_01/doc/em.102/b16244/chap2.htm#CHDCCEFB
    I'm nto getting any output when I did snmp walk using below command:
    snmpwalk -t 30 -M /usr/share/snmp/mibs/ -m all -c public localhost rdbmsMIB
    When I did snmpwalk using below command:
    snmpwalk -t 30 -M /RDBMS/oracle/product/10.2.0.4/grid10g/agent10g/network/doc -m all -c public localhost rdbmsMIB (only difference here with the above command is mibs directory)
    output:

    Here I'm trying to monitor Oracle statistics through zenoss console. As an initial est i'm trying to configure the snmp for oracle 10g. Please provide me the complete list of steps on what to do after installing OEM for my requierment.
    This will be a great help to me..

  • Error while creating datasource userdsn for oracle 10g Errorcode (998)

    while creating datasource userdsn for oracle 10g i am getting error "The setup routines for the oracle in OraDb10g_home1 odbc driver could not be loaded due to system error code 998" please give reply soon

    Thanks for your reply , Steve.
    I noticed that there is a default datasouce on the EM with the following parameters:
    <data-source
              class="com.evermind.sql.DriverManagerDataSource"
              name="OracleDS"
              location="jdbc/OracleCoreDS"

    The location and xa-location attributes that I use for my "test" data source are the same as the default one. So, could this be the issue?
    What should be the values for location and xa-location attributes from my "test" data source?
    Any help will be greatly appreciated.

  • Oracle gateway for Oracle 10g DB on Windows 64 bit server

    Is there any place that I can find Oracle dateway for Oracle 10g DB on Windows 64 bit server? I can only find Gateway for Oracle 11g on Windows 32 bit server. Please help me to identify this. Thanks.

    yingkuan:
    Thanks a lot. The link tells the details. It seems that Oracle has not release Gateway for Oracle database 10.2.0.x on Windows 64 bit server. Probably they don't do it.
    So under this circumstance, if I want to install Gateway (32 bit) on Oracle 10.2.0.3 DB on Windows 64 bit server for Teradata, I probably have to install Gateway software in another Oracle Home, then configure it right. Please give more advice on this. 32 bit Gateway will work for 64 bit database?

  • Long-term  retention backup strategy for Oracle 10g

    Hello,
    I need design a Archivelog, Level 0 and Level 1 long-term retention backup strategy for Oracle 10g, It must be based in Rman with tapes.
    ¿Somebody could tell me what it's the best option to configure long-term retention backups in Oracle?, "CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY TO RECOVERY WINDOW OF 1825 DAYS;" It's posibble ?
    Regards and thanks in advance

    Hello;
    RECOVERY WINDOW is an integer so yes its possible. Does it make sense?
    Later My bad, this is Oracle 11 only ( the gavinsoorma link ) . Getting harder and harder to think about 10. Don't think I would use RECOVERY WINDOW.
    I would let the tape backup system handle the retention of your rman backups.
    Using crosscheck and delete expired commands you can keep the catalog current with the available backups on tape.
    Oracle 10
    Keeping a Long-Term Backup: Example
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B19306_01/backup.102/b14191/rcmbackp.htm#i1006840
    http://web.njit.edu/info/oracle/DOC/backup.102/b14191/advmaint005.htm
    Oracle 11
    If you want to keep 5 years worth of backups I might just use KEEP specific date using the UNTIL TIME clause :
    keep until time 'sysdate+1825'More info :
    RMAN KEEP FOREVER, KEEP UNTIL TIME and FORCE commands
    http://gavinsoorma.com/2010/04/rman-keep-forever-keep-until-time-and-force-commands/

  • Note 830576 - Parameter recommendations for Oracle 10g

    hi all DBA experts.
    I am not good familiar with Oracle database while i read a Note 830576 - Parameter recommendations for Oracle 10g. in which SAP General Recommendation:
    You should delete obsolete initialization parameters from the profile.
    To determine which obsolete parameters are currently set, proceed as follows:
    SQL> SELECT NAME FROM V$OBSOLETE_PARAMETER WHERE ISSPECIFIED = 'TRUE';
    when i execute above command then result is no rows selected
    while there are many parameters in above SAP Note which are already obsolete and not set in initSID.ora file.
    for exp.  the parameter OPTIMIZER_INDEX_COST_ADJ  is showing
    #### OPTIMIZER MODE
    #optimizer_index_cost_adj = 10
    as you know that this parameter is very important regarding System Performance.
    now please guide me . I have to set these parameter or no need while there is not showing any parameters against obsolete command.
    waiting you valuable reply.
    Regards,

    hi both,

    could not locate the setup or translator libraryThe symptom described is typical of an incorrect system env PATH setting (used by the data source admin tool), compared to that of the Oracle Home (specifically, path $OH/bin). The odbc driver config routine will search directories listed in PATH variable for necessary libraries (Client dll's). If some library fails to load (from e.g. oraoci*.dll or oraclient10.dll) it will probably error out, as in your case.
    Are you creating the odbc dsn on the databse server host or on some other machine? I.e. are you using the db host as a client or not?

  • Should I go for Oracle 10g OCA/OCP or 11g OCA/OCP Certification?

    Hi all,
    I am lil bit confuse to decide about my oracle core dba certification.
    Please help me to know, as per the present requirements of the business organizations.
    ***Should I go for Oracle 10g OCA/OCP or 11g OCA/OCP Certification?***
    Hope u guys answer me earliest.
    Thanks & Regards,

    Most likely, it doesn't matter too much. I doubt that most employers are terribly concerned with what recent version of Oracle you have a certification on.
    That said, if it matters
    - What does your organization use? What are their plans to upgrade? If your company still uses 9.2 primarily and has plans to upgrade to 10.2 this year, you're probably better off with a 10g certification. If your company is already running mostly 11.2, you're probably better off with an 11g certification.
    - What do most employers in your particular part of the world tend to use? What do job postings in your particular part of the world generally list?
