Disaster recovery

Disaster recovery is a very complex process that involves products from several
vendors. As such, successful disaster recovery depends on all the vendors involved.
The information provided here is intended to be used as a guideline.

Check the instructions from the database/application vendor on how to prepare for
a disaster recovery. Also see the HP Data Protector disaster recovery guide for
instructions on how to approach system disaster recovery using Data Protector.

This is a general procedure for recovering an application:

1.

Complete the recovery of the operating system.

2.

Install, configure, and initialize the database/application so that data on the
Data Protector media can be loaded back to the system. Consult the
documentation from the database/application vendor for a detailed procedure
and the steps needed to prepare the database.

3.

Ensure that the database/application server has the required Data Protector
client software installed and is configured for the database/application. Follow
the procedures in this chapter and in the section. See also the section of this
manual about the Data Protector Restore GUI for Oracle for information about
using this to restore database items,

Restoring Oracle using the Data Protector

GUI

” on page 96.

4.

Start the restore. When the restore is complete, follow the instructions from the
database/application vendor for any additional steps required to bring the
database back online.

Monitoring sessions

During a backup, system messages are sent to the Data Protector monitor. You can
monitor the backup session from any Data Protector client on the network where the
Data Protector User Interface is installed.

Monitoring current sessions

To monitor a currently running session using the Data Protector GUI:

1.

In the Context List, click Monitor.

In the Results Area, all currently running sessions are listed.
