Considerations; Creating Backup Specifications - HP Data Protector A.06.11 Integration Manual

TIP:
When you create a backup specification, select a backup template that already contains
the desired BRBACKUP options.

Considerations

• Before you start a backup, ensure that the SAP R/3 database is in the open or
shutdown mode.
• Backup sessions that back up the same Oracle instance cannot run simultaneously.
• Generally, restore takes longer than backup. The restore is significantly prolonged
if files are backed up with many streams. Note that if you start a backup in the
RMAN mode with the Oracle RMAN script option FILESPERSET set to 1, RMAN
creates a separate backup stream (object) for each database file.

Creating backup specifications

Create a backup specification using the Data Protector Manager.
1. In the Context List, click Backup.
2. In the Scoping Pane, expand Backup Specifications, right-click SAP R/3, and
click Add Backup.
