COMMAND
vcdba_removedb
SYNOPSIS
vcdba_removedb -s <oracle_sid> -p <primary_host> -t <timestamp>
[-n <clone_sid>] [-h <clone_oracle_home>] [-f] [-v]
DESCRIPTION
The vcdba_removedb command removes a clone database that was created using the
vcdba_createdb command.
The clone database is shutdown with the shutdown immediate option. All files (Oracle
parameter file, control files, and redo logs), previously created with the vcdba_createdb
command are removed. The virtual copy remains mounted.
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.
OPTIONS
The following options are supported:
■ -s <oracle_sid> - The instance SID of the primary database. For an RAC database, any
instance SID can be specified.
■ -p <primary_host> - The corresponding host name of the primary host where the
specified Oracle database instance is running. The value of the primary host name must
match the output of the hostname command.
■ -t <timestamp> - The timestamp of a virtual copy that was previously used to create the
clone database.
■ -n <clone_sid> - The instance ID of the cloned database to be removed. If the clone
database uses the same <oracle_sid> as the primary <oracle_sid> , this option can be
omitted.
