[Veritas-bu] User backup necessary ?
2003-09-05 12:49:50
We are closer. here is what is planned. I'm looking for better ideas.
Major Update job finishes and leaves a completed file on the system.
4 am job scheduler stop oracle loop (if completed file is on system)
Set the netbackup schedule to start from 4 till 12 on Saturday
bpstart_notify will poll oracle from 4 till 12 on Saturday.
if stopped proceed with the backup.
else many ugly emails.
because we use multiplexing we will run many instances of bpstart_notify.
I really doesn't matter but it would be nice to only run one.
Also we will have to increase the time for BPSTART_TIMEOUT to 36000
This is normally a ten hour window on Saturday when the backups start.

We need to backup up our dataware house client.
Sun Ultra / Solaris 9
Netbackup 4.5
0.8Tbyte of oracle to be cold backup
The master server is the same platform/os. In order to stop oracle we need
a script on the Client. So scheduling the backup does not make sense due to
timing errors. Trying to create a script on the client to use the bpbackup
command.
We will need to use the -f filelist option. So how do we set the excludes?
I did create an exclude_list.TestBarney on our test machine. it does not
appear that the exclude file was used during the test backup. looking at
the docs for bpbackup I can not find any mention of excludes.
So Does this really work?
OR
Is there a better way other than rman ?
