HP Data Protector integration with Oracle Tutorial

HP Data Protector integration with Oracle:


For this oracle integration we need the following information.

1. Add oracle components in the oracle database server.
2. RMAN information
    Target database (which you want to take a backup) dba user and password.
    Catalog database dba user and password.


First add the components to the client and check.

Create a new Backup Specification for oracle Database.

Select the target database which you want to take a backup.

Specify the DBA username and password (Both Target and Catalog DB)

Because HPDP invokes the RMAN script only.

Now select which component you want to take backup(controlfile, entire DB, tablespace   etc)

Select the device where you want to store.

Set the schedule for this backup.

Save this backup Specification and start the specification interactively.

The backup session invokes the RMAN, and excutes the RMAN scripts.

Session completed successfully.

Now you can restore from the backup sets.

Restore starts and it invokes the RMAN script.
