In this case study, we used the virtual copy created using the rmora_rsync command for
asynchronous periodic backup and recovery, instead of using base volumes on the remote
system directly. We used the synced base volumes directly for synchronous remote system
backup and recovery. If at anytime you are unsure if the Remote Copy systems are fully synced
because of a system crash, you can always use the consistent virtual copy created from the
rmora_rsync
command.
6. Issue rmora_display to display all created virtual copies.

Recovering to the Synchronous Backup System when the Local System is
Unavailable
When the local storage system S256 becomes unavailable, the primary database ASM11GR2
residing on top of this system also becomes unavailable. Subsequently, all upper level applications
relying on this database are also unavailable.
The fastest recovery option is recovering from the remote synchronous storage system S347. To
recover, perform the following sequence of actions:
•
Perform failover from the remote synchronous storage system S347.
•
Start the database and redirect all applications to this database.
•
Once the local storage system has been recovered and returns to the normal state, recover
and restore operations from the remote synchronous storage system S347. This pushes data
to the recovered local storage system S256 and then reverses the data replication direction
to bring the Remote Copy configuration to its original state.
