Things to consider before you configure an instant access mount point
The instant access feature enhances the Oracle Intelligent Policy and gives you options to protect an Oracle database using multiple universal shares. This feature gives you better control of backups when an Oracle database backup is placed in a database share by the DBA. This feature also lets you choose a database share as the destination for the first backup copy. The backup copy is a full set of database data file copies created, incrementally updated, and protected by NetBackup.
For more information about universal share, refer to NetBackup Administrator's Guide, Volume I.
Note the following about the instant access Oracle feature:
The oracle copilot backup with universal share can only be used for instant access and cannot be used for Oracle Copilot instant recovery.
For instant access to work following an upgrade of NetBackup, first restart the NetBackup Web Service on the primary server. Run the following commands:
/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/nbwmc stop
/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/nbwmc start
