Recovery Manager 3.0.3/3.0.4 for Oracle User’s Guide
■
Control files are not restored by default.
■
For an online virtual copy, only data files are restored. Archive logs are not restored to
minimize restoration time. Oracle RMAN can restore necessary archive logs during recovery
(refer to Oracle documentation for details on how to use Oracle RMAN for recovery).
■
For an offline virtual copy, only data files are restored.
■
For a datafile-only virtual copy, only data files are restored.
■
For an archive log virtual copy, archive log restoration is not supported as Oracle RMAN can
restore necessary archive logs during recovery (refer to Oracle documentation for details on
how to use Oracle RMAN for recovery).
3PAR Recovery Manager backs up ASM metadata if the database is managed by ASM. In the
case you need to restore the metadata to the database host, you need to specify the disk
group name(s) for which to restore the metadata.
You must run this command as a super user from the backup host. To allow the Oracle
Database Administrator (Oracle Owner) to run this command, an identical Oracle Database
Administrator user must exist on backup host. In addition, permission on the 3PAR Recovery
Manager Installation and Repository directories must be changed appropriately.
Only the super user or the owner of the virtual copy can restore the specified virtual copy.
OPTIONS
The following options are supported:
-s <oracle_sid>
The Oracle SID of the database instance. For Real Application Cluster (RAC) database, an
Oracle SID of any RAC instance can be specified.
-p <db_host>
The corresponding host name of the database host where the specified Oracle database
instance is running. The value of the database host name must match the output of the
hostname
command.
-t <timestamp>
The timestamp of a virtual copy whose backup image is used for restoration. Use the
vcdba_display
command to retrieve a list of the virtual copy names. If a name is not
specified, the most recent virtual copy’s backup (full) image is used for the restoration.
