Ensuring an "SBT_TAPE" channel is established

Plug‑in for Oracle uses an Oracle® “SBT_TAPE” channel to conduct backups of an Oracle database. SBT is commonly used to specify a destination for RMAN commands used to back up to tape media. For complete information on establishing this type of channel for use, see Configuring and Allocating Channels for Use in Backups in the Oracle Database Backup and Recovery Advanced User’s Guide.

 
* 
IMPORTANT: Jobs that are generated using the RMAN CLI cannot be re-run using the NetVault Backup WebUI. The RMAN CLI command, that is, the RMAN script, is not sent from the RMAN CLI application back to NetVault Backup. So, if you select Run Now on the Job Status page, the job fails.

Running the NetVault Backup 'nvpluginaccess' utility

If the password for the NetVault Backup default user has been set or a non-default NetVault Backup user is used to run the backup and restore, you must run the nvpluginaccess utility on the NetVault Backup Server. You must then obtain the necessary security clearance for the plug-in to perform CLI backups and restores.

The nvpluginaccess utility is available in the “util” directory on the NetVault Backup Server.

1
Initiate a command-line session, and navigate to the “util” directory:
•
On Linux® and UNIX®, the “util” directory is in “…/netvault/util”
•
On Windows®, the “util” directory is in “…\NetVault Backup\util”
where “…” represents the path to the NetVault Backup Server installation directory.
2
Run the following commands:
nvpluginaccess -remove -client <clientMachineName>
nvpluginaccess -client <clientMachineName> -account <userName>
where <clientMachineName> is the name of the NetVault Backup Client machine on which the plug-in is installed and <userName> is the NetVault Backup user who performs the backups and restores.
Example:
nvpluginaccess -client DB_Server -account default
3
When the list of available plug-ins appears, enter the number that corresponds to the plug-in (“Oracle RMAN Plug-in”), and press Enter.
4
When the password prompt appears, enter the password for the specified NetVault Backup account.
A confirmation message appears stating that access has been granted for the specified NetVault Backup Client.
5
Verify that the nvpluginaccess utility has been correctly configured by reviewing the contents of the “hookplugs.cfg” file located in the “config” directory:
•
On Linux and UNIX, the “config” directory is in “…/netvault/config”
•
On Windows®, the “config” directory is in “…\NetVault Backup\config”
where “…” represents the path to the NetVault Backup Server installation directory.
The following entry in the “hookplugs.cfg” file corresponds to the preceding example.
[DB_SERVER]
Plug-ins=Oracle Rman!,Oracle Rman Plug-in
Account=default
Password=%G59j$#
 
* 
NOTE: The Password field in the “hookplugs.cfg” file contains an encrypted view of the password. The actual password is not displayed.

Performing CLI-based backups

The following topics provide information for performing CLI-based backups:

•
Example of a basic CLI backup
•
More parameters: the “format” clause
•
More parameters: the “send” and “PARMS” clauses
•
Querying the NetVault Backup media name

Example of a basic CLI backup

This topic shows how to take a Full Backup of the “USERS” tablespace using RMAN commands:

1
Log on to the Oracle® Database Server, and initiate a terminal session.
2
From the prompt, generate a “Run Block” as follows:
run {
allocate channel c1 device type 'SBT_TAPE';
backup
tablespace USERS;
release channel c1;
}

The preceding commands are the minimum required to perform a CLI-based backup. The plug-in provides several additional parameters that can be used to set different options for a CLI backup job. The topics that follow provide a description of these parameters.
