TDP for Oracle installation in an AIX PowerHA cluster

[Panagiotis]

Hello,

Is there any guide custom or official for the installation of TDPO on an AIX cluster ?
I tried the IBM Spectrum Protect for Databases: Data Protection for Oracle Installation... but it doesn't mention in case it's a cluster.
Thanks in advance.

The installation follows the cluster logic, if you have two nodes and only one cluster resource, you install the two baclients on the two nodes, create a TSM node on the cluster resource and the TDPO configures it on the cluster resource which is shared between the two nodes in the cluster.

Hi,

For normal oracle clusters we use this layout:

Host1 -> node1_tdpo
Host2 -> node2_tdpo

Then create a node holding the data

clusternode_tdpo

For each of the nodeX, you add

asnodename clusternode_tdpo in the dsm.sys file

On the sp server:

reg node node1_tdpo
reg node node2_tdpo
reg node clusternode_tdpo
grant proxy target=clusternode_tdpo agent=node1_tdpo
grant proxy target=clusternode_tdpo agent=node2_tdpo

Hope this helps you to start of the config

Thank you both.

It's my first time setting up a cluster so i was kind of confused.

I believe the same logic applies for a Red Hat cluster with PostGRESQL. Correct?

Postgres must dump backup to disk (unless you have a 3.party software).

Make a similar config as above.

When postgres runs backup, make sure dsmc uses asnodename clusternode in it.
