Dell PowerProtect Data Manager Appliance 5.12.0.1 Oracle RMAN User Guide for DM5500
Discover the storage units
When a PowerProtect Data Manager Appliance protection policy is created, the PowerProtect Data Manager Appliance server assigns its storage unit to the Oracle databases that are protected by the protection policy. Both the manual backups and scheduled backups of these Oracle databases are sent to this storage unit.
To display the storage units and their assigned databases on the Oracle RMAN agent host, run the ddutil -s command.
NOTE The
ddutil -s command might display a storage unit type of "secondary." However, you cannot perform a backup to a secondary device. You can only restore from a secondary device.
For example:
ddutil -s
PowerProtect DD hostname: 10.125.192.190 FC service name: None FC service enabled: false Storage Unit: multi-asset-blrv041a118-7dab9 Top Level Path: PLCTLP-43f18cb1-fadb-4b25-ae9e-e385d5b5c401 Protection Policy Name: multi-asset User: multi-asset-blrv041a118-7dab9 Type: PROTECTION
