Deleting an instant recovery point for Oracle Copilot instant recovery

The nborair command can delete an instant recovery point that is available for Oracle Copilot instant recovery.

Note:

The functionality for deleting an instant recovery point is not in the GUI. This feature is command line option only.

Refer to the NetBackup Commands Reference Guide for more usage options using the nborair command.

To delete an instant recovery point

  1. (Conditional) Verify the recovery point is unmounted from the destination client using the OS tools.

    UNIX: umount /mnt

  2. List the recovery point on the NetBackup appliance by running the nborair - list_recovery_points - appliance appliance_name command.

    The NetBackup administrator must run this command from the NetBackup master server.

    Example output:

    # nborair -list_recovery_points -appliance appl5330
    Total 1 recovery points found.
    
    Export path: /shares/share1_orachost1.demo.com_1472590277_rp1
    Share name: share1
    Export options: oracdest(rw,no_root_squash,insecure)
  3. Delete the recovery point on the NetBackup appliance by running the nborair -delete_recovery_point -appliance appliance_name -export_path export_path command.

    The NetBackup administrator must run this command from the NetBackup master server.

    Example output:

    # nborair -delete_recovery_point -appliance appl5330 
    -export_path /shares/share1_orachost1.demo.com_1472590277_rp1
