Creating a User Defined Backup Tag

When a Data Guard strategy of backing up from both the Primary and Standby Database Server is implemented with backups from the Primary and Standby Database Servers being interchangeable, you might want to be able to select the source of the backup during a restore (for example, select to restore from the Primary Database Server versus the Standby Database Server). The User Defined Backup Tag option lets you assign a tag to the backups that indicates the source of the backup — the Primary Database Server or the Standby Database Server. During the restore, the User Defined Backup Tag is specified in the Restore Options to ensure that only backups from the applicable server are used for the restore.
To use this feature
1
On the NetVault Backup Plugin Options page, click the RMAN Backup Options tab.
2
Select the User Defined Backup Tag option, and enter a tag name.
This option creates a tag name for the backup set. Use only characters that are allowed in file names on the target file system. For example, ASM does not support the use of hyphens (-) in file names that it uses internally, so you cannot use a hyphen in the tag name (such as, weekly-incremental) if you are storing backups in ASM disk groups.

Performing manual backups of Control File and SPFILE

For Oracle 10.2.x Data Guard environments where Back up from both Primary and Secondary strategy has been deployed or Oracle 11.x Data Guard environments where the Control File and SPFILE backups are the only backups that will be performed on the Primary Database Servers, Manual Control File and SPFILE backups are performed.
To back up the Control File and SPFILE manually
1
Ensure that Control File and SPFILE Autobackups are disabled.
For more information, see Step 5 under Adding a database.
2
In the selection tree, select the Parameter File and Control File nodes.
3
On the Backup Option tab of the NetVault Backup Plugin Options page, select the following options:
•
In the Backup Method section, select RMAN.
•
In the Backup Destination section, select either Tape (Backup to NetVault Backup Media) or Both Tape and Disk (Backup to FRA then Backup FRA to NetVault Backup Media) to ensure that the Control File and SPFILE are stored on backup media for disaster recovery purposes.
•
In the Backup Method section, select Full.
4
Use the Schedule, Target Storage, and Advanced Options lists to configure any additional required options.
5
Click Save or Save & Submit, whichever is applicable.

Restoring data

When performing restores in a Data Guard environment where the backup is being restored to the same Database Server where the backup was taken, there is no difference between performing the restore in a Data Guard environment or a non-Data Guard environment. For more information on single-instance environments, see Performing RMAN restores. For more information on multi-instance environments, see Restoring data in a RAC environment.
When performing restores in a Data Guard environment where the backup is restored to an alternate Database Server in the Data Guard environment, the restore is identical to restoring to the same Database Server except for the differences detailed in the following sections.

Configuring a restore to an alternate server in a Data Guard environment

When performing backups from either the Primary or Standby Database Server, the index for the backup is stored in the NetVault Database under the NetVault Backup Client Name of the Database Server where the backup was performed. To restore to an alternate Database Server, the plug-in configuration of the alternate (target) server of the restore must be modified to specify the name of the source NetVault Backup Client.
To configure the backup taken from NetVault Backup Client option
1
In the Navigation Pane, click Create Backup Job, and click Create New next to the Selections list.
2
In the selection tree, open the NetVault Backup Client that is configured as the alternate or target Oracle Database Server, and select Plug‑in for Oracle.
3
From the Actions list, select Configure.
4
On the Configure dialog, complete the Restore Backup taken from NetVault Backup Client field by specifying the NetVault Backup Machine Name for the alternate or target Database Server.
When a restore is performed by the plug-in, this field indicates the NetVault Backup Client from which the original backup was performed.
