After you register an application host with
PowerProtect Data Manager Appliance, you can use the
Asset Sources window to discover an application host and modify the application host credentials. For application hosts, discovery is required if you want to schedule a backup. You must add credentials to the Oracle database so that
PowerProtect Data Manager Appliance can access the database to create backups.
About this task
Perform the following steps to discover an Oracle application host as an asset source in the
PowerProtect Data Manager Appliance UI.
Steps
Select
Infrastructure > Asset Sources.
The
Asset Sources window appears.
Select the
Oracle tab.
If you are adding an Oracle database, select the host entry and click
Edit Credentials.
The
Edit Credentials dialog appears.
If you are adding credentials for an Oracle database, specify CredentialType as
OS User and provide the Oracle username and password.
NOTE:Credentials that you set at the asset level and asset source level supersede the credentials that you set at the protection policy level. Credentials at the asset level have the highest precedence.
Click
Save.
An entry for the application host with the specified information appears as an entry in a table on the
Asset Sources window.
Discovery time is based on networking bandwidth. The resources that are discovered and those that are doing the discovery take a performance hit each time that you go through a discovery process. It might appear that
PowerProtect Data Manager Appliance is not updating the
Asset Sources data.
NOTE:Click
Discover at any time if any additions or other changes to your asset sources have taken place outside of the
PowerProtect Data Manager Appliance environment. You can initiate a full discovery of assets by selecting the
Initiate a Full Discovery option.
Results
If the database is properly configured, the application hosts can now be added to a
PowerProtect Data Manager Appliance protection policy.
