COMMAND
vcdba_export
SYNOPSIS
vcdba_export -s <oracle_sid> -p <primary_host> -r alt_host
-t <timestamp> [-l <alt_tpdhost>] -e alt_tpdpwfile|alt_tpdusername [-v]
DESCRIPTION
The vcdba_export command exports a virtual copy's repository from the current backup host
to an alternate backup host. The exported virtual copy can then be mounted or cloned at the
alternate backup host. A virtual copy's repository can be exported to multiple alternate backup
hosts, which share the same InServ Storage Server as the original backup host. A virtual copy
can only be mounted on one backup host at a time.
The first time a virtual copy repository is exported to an alternate backup host, the
vcdba_export command also copies the Recovery Manager configuration file from the
current backup host to the alternate backup host.
The vcdba_export command also modifies configuration parameters according to the values
specified in the arguments for alt_tpdhost , alt_tpdpwfile , and alt_tpdusername .
If the vcdba_export command is invoked by an Oracle DBA, an identical Oracle user ID and
group ID must exist on the alternate backup host.
If SSH is currently configured for accessing from the current backup host to the primary host
and the InServ Storage Server, then SSH must also be configured to allow accessing from the
current backup host to the alternate backup host as well as from the alternate backup host to
the InServ Storage Server. SSH is the only supported remote access method on Linux systems by
3PAR Recovery Manager.
If RSH and CLI are configured to access from the current backup host to the primary host and
the InServ Storage Server, then RSH and CLI must also be configured to allow access from the
current backup host to the alternate backup host, as well as from the alternate backup host to
the InServ Storage Server.
You must run this command as a super user from the backup host. To allow the Oracle
Database Administrator to run this command, an identical Oracle Database Administrator user
must exist on alternate backup host. In addition, permission on the /opt/3par/vcdbaora
directory must be changed appropriately.
