thanks for the information!! This is what I received from Veritas, and it
worked perfectly:
things to note:
-same oracle sid on restore to client as original
-oracle already installed/working, and can backup and restore from current
master
-Veritas engineer suggested adding the No.Restrictions file instead of the
client2 file with client1 name added
-Netbackup master sever:
/usr/openv/netbackup/db/altnames/No.Restrictions
Directions from Veritas engineer:
1. By using the NB_ORA_CLIENT variable in the RMAN script for the restore
you will query the NBU database as the original server, so you will then not
need to make any changes to the bp.conf files on the alternate server
http://seer.support.veritas.com/docs/262915.htm.
2. The following technote outlines the basic procedure for the alternate
client restore of Oracle for NBU 3.4
http://seer.support.veritas.com/docs/196781.htm. Take note of the
NB_ORA_CLIENT varible.
This 3.4 document works with 4.5.
This 3.4 document does work. DBA used these directions and had no problems.
Also, I did not user the No.Restrictions file (way to risky) and had no
problems.

The trick is to make sure that you set the environment variables on client2
to pretend to be client1. The logs directorys dbclient and
user_ops/dbext/logs are important as they are used to communicate between
rman and the master.
On client2 in rman (set up SID etc) -
allocate channel t1 type 'SBT_TAPE' parms="ENV=(NB_ORA_SERVER=nbmaster,
NB_ORA_CLIENT=client1)";
Also see - http://seer.support.veritas.com/docs/196781.htm
We saw weird failure messages which was caused by a dns error in that
client2's ip address didn't reverse lookup.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] alternate client restore with Rman
HI,
I have a NB 4.5.1 FP4 Solaris 8 server. I also have 2 NB clients, both
Solaris 8. One NB client, client2, wants to restore rman data from client1.
I have created n file under altnames to facilitate this. My problem is, the
backup was done with RMAN on client1, and client2 wants to initiate a RMAN
restore of client1's data. Does anyone know how this can be accomplished??
Thanks for the help!
