Hi @all

i have a problem with rman backups after i changed the managementclass for full backups.

OS: Linux

I use two managementclasses for oracle backups.

1. ORADB_MGT (for diskpool)
2. ORADBTP_MGT (for direct to tape)

In dsm.sys i have configured the following includes:

include /adsmorc/.../* ORADBTP_MGT
include /adsmorc/.../DB* ORADBTP_MGT
include /adsmorc/.../c* ORALOGA_MGT
include /adsmorc/.../LOG* ORALOGA_MGT

I´ve changed the first and the second include from ORADB_MGT to ORADBTP_MGT.
But if i perform a new full backup, the backup goes to disk and use the ORADB_MGT and not the ORADBTP_MGT.

I don´t know, why the backup will not use the right mgmt class.

best regards
Mathias

Need some more info.
How are we backing up Oracle?
Are we backing up Oracle via the TSM B/A Client or via the TDP?
If we are backing up Oracle via the TDP, did we update the correct dsm.sys?
There is one dsm.sys for the TSM B/A Client and another one for the TSM API that the TDP use to communicate with the TSM Server.

If we are only using the TSM B/A Client to backup Oracle.
Did we stop and restart the schedule daemon?

Good Luck,

Hi Sias,

it´s a backup via TDP.

We updated the correct dsm.sys.
We use one dsm.sys in /client/ba/bin64 with serveral stanzas.
In /client/oracle/bin64 we use a symbolic link to /client/ba/bin64/dsm.sys

We have not a seperate dsm.sys for oracle TDP.

regards

Many years ago I've encounter the same issue.
Resolved it by breaking the link, and physically have the TSM API dsm.opt and dsm.sys in its default directory.

In the dsm.sys for the TSM API, I would remove the stanza(s) for the TSM B/A Client.
Just to keep the dsm.sys clean and avoid possible confusion.
If you don't want to remove the stanza(s) for the TSM B/A Client, just make a note what the stanza(s) are for and that there is another dsm.sys in the client/ba/bin64 directory.

Good Luck,
Sias

Did you check the Oracle backup script to see if the Management class is hard coded in there?
