NetBackup™ for Oracle Administrator's Guide

Configure an instant access mount

You can configure an instant access database from a full backup. The full backup must come from an Oracle copilot backup with data file copies in the NetBackup universal share.

You can configure an instant access Oracle database from the web UI or use the REST API.

You can create an instant access mount for a database and for a pluggable database.

Configure an instant access mount

  1. On the left, select Workloads > Oracle.
  2. Do one of the following:

    • On the Databases tab, click the database and then click the Recovery points tab if you want to configure an instant access mount for a database.

    • On the Pluggable databases tab, click the database and then click the Recovery points tab if you want to configure an instant access mount for a pluggable database.

    • On the Databases tab, click the database and then click the Pluggable databases > Recovery points tab if you want to configure an instant access mount for a pluggable database.

  3. On the Recovery points tab, click the date on which the backup occurred.

    The available images appear in rows with the backup timestamp for each image.

  4. Right-click on the backup image and click Actions > Configure instant access mount.

    Note:

    This option is only displayed if the recovery point supports instant access.

  5. Enter the host names where you want to configure the instant access database.
  6. (Optional) If you have configured NFS in the Oracle client, select the Direct NFS check box for the universal shares support the feature.
  7. Click Configure.
