HP 3PAR Application Software Suite for Oracle - Manual (Page 56)

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_server>
The host name of the database server, on which the Oracle database instance is running. The
value of the database server name must match the output of the hostname command.
-t <timestamp>
The timestamp of a virtual copy to be backed up. The virtual copy name can be obtained using
the rmora_display command.
-o online
Creates an online virtual copy of a database while it is OPEN (online) prior to backup. This option
is ignored if a virtual copy is specified. The offline, online, datafile, and archlog options
are mutually exclusive.
-o hotbkup
This option is the same as the -o online option. This option is deprecated and will be removed
at a later release.
-o offline
Creates an offline virtual copy of a database while it is CLOSED (offline) prior to backup. This
option is ignored if a virtual copy is specified. The offline, online, datafile, and archlog
options are mutually exclusive.
-o coldbkup
Same as the -o offline option. This option is deprecated and will be removed at a later release.
-o datafile
Creates an virtual copy for all datafiles (not including the archive log destinations and temporary
datafile) of a database while it is OPEN (online) prior to backup. This option is ignored if a virtual
copy is specified. The online, offline, datafile, and archlog options are mutually exclusive.
A virtual copy created with the -o datafile option is only useful when archive logfiles generated
during the creation of the virtual copy are also available. You may want to create separate virtual
copies using the -o archlog options, or use another backup method to backup archive log
destinations.
-o archlog
Creates a virtual copy of the archive log destination prior to backup. This option cannot be used
if a virtual copy is specified. The offline, online, datafile, and archlog options are
mutually exclusive.
-o archonly
Same as the -o archlog command. This option is deprecated.
-o full
Performs a full backup of a virtual copy. If Symantec NetBackup is selected as the backup method,
this option can be used with the -o archlog option to perform full backup of an archlog
virtual copy. Recovery Manager for Oracle will only use one incremental schedule name for either
differential incremental or cumulative incremental backup, which is predefined in the NBU schedule.
If Oracle RMAN is selected as the backup method, this option can be used to perform full backup
of an online or offline virtual copy.
-o incr
Performs an incremental backup of a virtual copy. If Symantec NetBackup is selected as the backup
method, this option can be used with the -o archlog option to perform incremental backup of
an archlog virtual copy. If Oracle RMAN is selected as the backup method, this option can be
used to perform an incremental backup of an online or offline virtual copy.
