Skip this step if the SAP DB/MaxDB media and pipes to be used with Data
Protector are already existing on the SAP DB/MaxDB Server.

Note that to restore a Data Protector SAP DB/MaxDB backup session, the number
of SAP DB/MaxDB media and pipes required equals the parallelism value used
during the backup session.

Create SAP DB/MaxDB media in an SAP DB/MaxDB media group. Execute the
following command for every medium to be created, depending on the
SAP DB/MaxDB version:

• For MaxDB version 7.6:

medium_put media_group_name/medium_name pipe_name

media_type type backup_type [size [block_size [overwrite

[autoloader [os_command [tool_type]]]]]]

• For other SAP DB/MaxDB versions:

medium_put media_group_name/medium_name pipe_name

media_type backup_type

backup_type

can be one of the following:

• DATA for full backup

• PAGES for differential (diff) backup

• LOG for transactional (trans) backup

tool_type

must be the following:

• "BACK" for backup with Backint for MaxDB

IMPORTANT:

When creating SAP DB/MaxDB media and pipes for the purpose of a Data
Protector backup and restore, the media group name must begin with the
"BACK"

string. The commands below create two media and two pipes

(parallelism = 2) in a media group:

Windows, MaxDB version 7.6:

medium_put BACKDP-Data[2]/1 \
\\.\Pipe\inst_name.BACKDP_Data[2].1 PIPE DATA 0 8 \
NO NO \"\" "BACK"
