NetBackup™ for Oracle Administrator's Guide

Example - Using bporaimp for a redirected restore

For example, assume the following:

  • Original client is jupiter

  • New client is saturn

  • Server is jupiter

  • ORACLE_SID is test on both saturn and jupiter

  • Windows user is ora on both jupiter and saturn

  • UNIX user is ora on both jupiter and saturn

  • Archive name is sales

To use bporaimp for a redirected restore (example)

  1. Create the following file on server jupiter:

    Windows:

    install_path\NetBackup\db\altnames\saturn

    UNIX:

    /usr/openv/netbackup/db/altnames/saturn
  2. Edit the preceding file to contain the name jupiter.
  3. Log on to saturn as ora.
  4. Create file bporaimp.param.

    Include the following parameters:

    NAME = sales
    NB_ORA_SERV = jupiter
    NB_ORA_CLIENT = jupiter
    USERID = orauser/orapasswd
  5. Run bporaimp parfile=bporaimp.param to restore sales archive to saturn and to import the data into the test database on saturn.
