Backing up a tablespace

About this task

The following procedure uses an RMAN script to back up a tablespace to an Avamar server or a Data Domain system.

An avtar flag file for the RMAN script that is specified in this procedure contains the following entries:

--debug
--pidname=Oracle
--pidnum=3002
--logfile=install-dir/var/clientlogs/backupdb.log
--vardir=install-dir/var
--id=testuser@/clients/oraw2k864-mc2.bgl-avamar.dell.com
--password=testuser
--path=/clients/oraw2k864-mc2.bgl-avamar.dell.com
--server=avamar-1.dell.com

NOTE:To view the contents of a tablespace backup, use the list backup command. The list backup command lists all the datafiles and the control file that are part of the tablespace backup.

Steps

  1. Open a command shell.
  2. Log in to Oracle RMAN by using the Oracle user ID and password.
    The command prompt changes to an RMAN prompt.
  3. Connect to the Oracle database to back up.
  4. Back up the Oracle tablespace by typing commands similar to the following RMAN commands:

    run {
    configure controlfile autobackup on;
    set controlfile autobackup format for device type sbt to
    'CONTROLFILE.ANT.%F';
    allocate channel c0 type sbt
    PARMS="SBT_LIBRARY=c:\PROGRA~1\avs\bin\orasbt64.dll"\
    format '%d_%U';
    send '"--prefix=11g/ANT/"
    "--flagfile=c:\rman\avtar-flags.txt"
    "--taskfile=c:\rman\taskfile.txt"
    "--bindir=c:\PROGRA~1\avs\bin"';
    backup tablespace ant_ts;
    release channel c0;
    }

    In the sample script, the database name is ANT and the tablespace name is ant_ts. The script backs up the tablespace and the database control file by using the autobackup option.
