PowerProtect Data Manager 19.12 Oracle RMAN User Guide

Troubleshooting a failed migration of RAC_BACKUP_NODE_IP parameter setting

When the RAC_BACKUP_NODE_IP parameter in the configuration file is set to an FQDN (rather than IP address), an update of the PowerProtect Data Manager fails to migrate this parameter setting to the preferred node setting on the Assets page in the PowerProtect Data Manager UI.

The preferred node setting in an Oracle RAC environment is only applicable for a centralized protection policy, not for a self-service protection policy.

As a workaround, ensure that the RAC_BACKUP_NODE_IP parameter in the configuration file is set to the required IP address prior to updating the PowerProtect Data Manager from a previous version. Then the PowerProtect Data Manager update automatically migrates the RAC_BACKUP_NODE_IP parameter setting to the preferred node setting on the Assets page in the PowerProtect Data Manager UI.

Assign a preferred node in Oracle RAC environment provides details on the preferred node setting in an Oracle RAC environment.

NOTE If you later modify the preferred node setting in the UI, the RAC_BACKUP_NODE_IP parameter setting remains unchanged in the configuration file. The preferred node setting in the UI takes precedence over the parameter setting in the configuration file.
