PowerProtect Data Manager Appliance 5.16.0.0 Oracle RMAN User Guide

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: testblr.lab.emc.com

        FC service name: None
        FC service enabled: false

        Storage Unit: Upgrade_1913_AIX-blrv003c081-R-caa9a
