/usr/openv/netbackup/include_list.<policy_name>

file, which contains a list of

files on the Virtual Copy for backup.

Once the backup process is completed, the NBU client executes the
bpend_notify.<policy_name>

script to perform Virtual Copy cleanup.

NOTE:

The bpstart_notify and bpend_notify scripts are generated at

/usr/openv/netbackup/bin

during the creation of the Recovery Manager Configuration file.

By default, the bpstart_notify script (for database backup policy) performs an online backup.
If an offline or datafile backup is desired, edit this file to set the value of BACKUP_MODE to 'offline'
or 'datafile' respectively. In addition, the database must be manually shutdown for offline backup.

For Oracle RMAN with HP Data Protector:

HP Data Protector Cell Manager executes the DP_pre.<backup_specification> on the
RMO backup server.

The DP_pre.<backup_specification> script creates an online, offline, datafile or archlog
virtual copy; mounts it on the RMO backup server; starts up a cloned database in MOUNTED
mode; then return control to HP Data Protector.

HP Data Protector executes RMAN script (defined in the HP Data Protector backup specification)
to back up the cloned database.

HP Data Protector executes the DP_post.<backup_specification> on the RMO backup
server to clean up the cloned database and the virtual copy.

NOTE:

The DP_pre.<backup_specification> and DP_post.<backup_specification>

are generated at /usr/omni/bin (AIX) or /opt/omni/lbin (other UNIX platforms) on the
backup server during the Recovery Manager for Oracle configuration process. By default, the
DP_pre.<backup_specification>

creates an online Virtual Copy. If an offline or datafile

Virtual Copy is desired, edit this file to set the value of BACKUP_MODE to offline or datafile
respectively. For offline virtual copy, the database must be manually shutdown.

For Oracle RMAN and Oracle RMAN with Symantec NetBackup:

The NBU client executes the backup script rmora_nbu_dbbackup.sh or
rmora_nbu_archbackup.sh

, which must be specified in the Backup Selection List of the

NBU policy.

The backup script creates a Virtual Copy of the database or archive log destination, mounts
it on the backup server, starts up a cloned database in MOUNTED mode, then calls the RMAN
backup scripts (rmora_rman_dbbackup.sh or rmora_rman_archbackup.sh) to backup
the cloned database.

NOTE:

The backup scripts (rmora_nbu_dbbackup.sh and rmora_nbu_archbackup.sh)

and the RMAN backup scripts (rmora_rman_dbbackup.sh and
rmora_rman_archbackup.sh

) are generated at

/etc/3par/solutions/<db_server>.ora.<oracle_sid>

during the creation of the

Recovery Manager Configuration file. By default, the rmora_nbu_dbbackup.sh script (for
database backup policy) will perform an online backup. If an offline or datafile backup is desired,
edit this file to set the value of BACKUP_MODE to 'offline' or 'datafile' respectively. For offline
Virtual Copy, the database must be manually shutdown.

If the Virtual Copy is to be backed up using Oracle RMAN, a Recovery Catalog must be created
and configured prior to using the backup utility.

For an RAC database, archive log destinations of all RAC instances must be on shared storage
(same cluster file systems or same ASM disk groups).
