Recovery Manager for Oracle with Remote Copy
Recovery Manager for Oracle integrates with HP 3PAR Remote Copy Software to copy database
virtual volumes from one HP 3PAR storage system (local/primary) to another (remote/secondary).
Once copied, database virtual copies (application consistent snapshots) are created on the
remote/secondary storage system. The virtual copies can be used for disaster recovery or other
off-host processing purposes. Recovery Manager for Oracle supports synchronous and asynchronous
periodic mode Remote Copy, as well as Synchronous Long Distance Remote Copy. See the HP
3PAR Remote Copy Software User's Guide for additional information.
Recovery Manager for Oracle and Peer Motion
You do not need to uninstall and then reinstall Recovery Manager for Oracle when you migrate
data with HP 3PAR Peer Motion.
Preparing Recovery Manager for Oracle for Peer Motion Data Migration
1. Before you use Peer Motion to migrate data, remove all existing Recovery Manager for Oracle
virtual copies in the following order:
a.
Remove all clone databases; to do so, use the GUI or the rmora_umount command.
b. Unmount all currently mounted virtual copies; to do so, use the GUI or the rmora_umount
command.
c. Remove all existing virtual copies; to do so, use the GUI or the rmora_remove command.
2. Start the data migration. While Peer Motion is migrating data, do not use Recovery Manager
for Oracle.
3. Finish host configuration for the new HP 3PAR storage system.
4. Remove the old system from the storage system setup.
5. After Peer Motion migration is complete, reconfigure SSH to allow the database and backup
servers to access the new HP 3PAR storage system.
6. Modify the Recovery Manager for Oracle configuration file to reflect the new HP 3PAR storage
system; to do so, use the GUI or rmora_config command.
7. Begin Recovery Manager for Oracle operations.
