Creating notify scripts for BLI backups
Create the notify scripts that run on the clients to synchronize the backup operation and the database operation. You need a set of three notify scripts for each policy that performs BLI backups. The scripts must be in the /usr/openv/netbackup/bin directory on the NetBackup client.
The scripts are named as follows:
bpstart_notify.POLICY
post_checkpoint_notify.POLICY
bpend_notify.POLICY
To create the notify scripts, run the following script as root:
/usr/openv/netbackup/ext/db_ext/oracle/bin/setup_bli_scripts
This script copies the sample notify script templates to /usr/openv/netbackup/bin and makes the necessary changes based on the information you provide.
The notify script templates are located on the local computer in the following location:
/usr/openv/netbackup/ext/db_ext/oracle/samples
When you run setup_bli_scripts you need to supply the following information:
Identify the POLICY_IN_CONTROL
Provide the Oracle environment variables
Select a backup method
Notify scripts for other policies
