Re: TDP for Oracle in AIX - Problem
Issue got Resolved. Thanks for all ur Support... Oracle Corporation has recommended to configure the TDP for Oracle in both the nodes and the both the nodes RMAN configuration as below.. - RMAN show all; RMAN configuration parameters are: CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY TO REDUNDANCY 30; CONFIGURE BACKUP OPTIMIZATION OFF; CONFIGURE DEFAULT DEVICE TYPE TO 'SBT_TAPE'; CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP ON; CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP FORMAT FOR DEVICE TYPE 'SBT_TAPE' TO '%F'; CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP FORMAT FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO '%F'; CONFIGURE DEVICE TYPE 'SBT_TAPE' PARALLELISM 2; CONFIGURE DEVICE TYPE DISK PARALLELISM 2; CONFIGURE DATAFILE BACKUP COPIES FOR DEVICE TYPE 'SBT_TAPE' TO 1; CONFIGURE DATAFILE BACKUP COPIES FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO 1; # default CONFIGURE ARCHIVELOG BACKUP COPIES FOR DEVICE TYPE 'SBT_TAPE' TO 1; CONFIGURE ARCHIVELOG BACKUP COPIES FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO 1; # default CONFIGURE CHANNEL 1 DEVICE TYPE 'SBT_TAPE' PARMS 'ENV=(TDPO_OPTFILE=/usr/tivoli/tsm/client/oracle/bin64/tdpo.opt)' FORMAT BACKUP_%U CONNECT 'sys/s...@icropdb01'; CONFIGURE CHANNEL 2 DEVICE TYPE 'SBT_TAPE' PARMS 'ENV=(TDPO_OPTFILE=/usr/tivoli/tsm/client/oracle/bin64/tdpo.opt)' FORMAT BACKUP_%U CONNECT 'sys/s...@icropdb02'; CONFIGURE MAXSETSIZE TO UNLIMITED; CONFIGURE SNAPSHOT CONTROLFILE NAME TO '/opt/oracle/product/9i/dbs/snapcf_icropdb01.f'; # default RMAN - In the above configuration, you can find two channels has been configured to communicate with both the nodes. So, the backup will happen from both the nodes coz the Oracle Undo files and Archive logs are unique in both the nodes. TSM Client and TDP for Oracle Configuration refer the below link.. http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21260228 Backup is happening successfully now.

Re: TDP for Oracle in AIX - Problem
Hi Wellington, Is anything showing up on your TSM Server actlog at the same time? I'm wondering if you have enough mount points allocated for that client node (e.g. UPDATE NODE NODE_TDPO MAXNUMMP=4). Also, for RAC config best practices, check out this useful article from IBM.COM: http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21260228 I'm working on a similar config for a customer at the moment on Linux, works a treat using this method.

But, I need to allocate two channels coz it Oracle 9i RAC DB(2 nodes)... My site has a number of HP-UX Oracle servers. We used to send incoming backups to storage pools composed of sequential disk volumes (which TSM treats like tape volumes with respect to mount points and mount point limits), and data for Oracle restores is almost always read from tape. We started off setting maxnummp equal to the number of backup or restore streams TDP was configured for, and got lots of sessions failing with messages indicating that the client was trying to use too many mount points. We eliminated the problem by setting maxnummp to twice the number of streams TDP was configured for. We have never figured out why the extra mount points are needed.
