TDP for Oracle on Sun Solaris 7 64-bit kernel - TSM Client, API and TDP package compatibility
We have a TSM v4.1.2 Server on Sun Solaris 7 (64-bit kernel). I need to install TDP for Oracle for testing with an Oracle 8.1.7 database RMAN, could use some guidance. What's are the compatible version-combinations of: TDP for Oracle pkg: TDPoracle TSM API pkg: TIVsmCapi TSM B/A Client pkg: TIVsmCba Could someone who is successfully using TDP for Oracle with TSM Server 4.1.2 and Oracle 8.1.x please provide version info and sample TDP config files RMAN scripts ? Thanks in advance, Kent Monthei GlaxoSmithKline
TDP for Oracle on SUN
hi, There is a problem with Oracle 8.1.6 on Sun. We've opened an Info APAR (II12668) for this problem. I am sure you are running into situation #1 described in the APAR. APAR text is as follow: ERROR DESCRIPTION: The Tivoli Data Protection for Oracle - Comp ID: 5698DPOCL . When configuring the TDP for Oracle on Sun Solaris, there are some Oracle Bugs that may be encountered. 1) Bug No. 1252142 DYNAMIC REPLACEMENT OF 3RD-PARTY MEDIA MANAGEMENT LIBRARY DOES NOT WORK IN 8.1.6 2) Bug No. 1529085. (Shared (MTS) connections do not work) . For 1) Oracle Bug No 1252142. The following workaround can be used. - First edit the 'sysliblist' under $ORACLE_HOME/lib. Add '-lthread' as the first entry of the file. should look like '-lthread -lnsl -lsocket -lgen -ldl -lsched' (if this change is not done to the sysliblist then the control may become corrupt). - Second do the first workaround as described in the Oracle BUG #1252142 - Ensure $ORACLE_HOME/lib/libobk.so is pointing at the one in /opt/tivoli/tsm/client/oracle/bin - Relink the oracle executable: Ensure the Oracle instance is shutdown % cd $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/lib % make -f ins_rdbms.mk ioracle . For 2) Oracle Bug no 1529085, there no work around at this time. - do not use shared connections (MTS). Use dedicated connect TSM TDP'rs, Experiencing a very strange and annoying problem after configuring the Oracle TPD agent on a SUN 7 system. As soon as the TDP's libobk.so is bound to Oracle thru make . Oracle starts complaining that its control files are corrupt. Something to do with the SCN not being what it should be. We've tried the latest TDP Agent 4.1.10 and even the older 2.1.9c on Oracle 8.1.5 and 8.1.6 nothing seems to alter the situation. Working with the original Oracle libobk causes no problems. It's even stanger when you consider that corruption occurs even before RMAN is in anyway used. Oracle support is looking into it but have no answer as of yet. Anybody got a clue as to why the control files are getting corrupted ? regards Walter Ridderhof.

Re: TDP for Oracle on SUN
Hi Walter, I am not sure if this helps. We have a client who is using Solaris 7 and Oracle 8.1.5, they installed TDP 2.1. When they installed the required patches 106300 and 106327, the oracle was broken (I don't know what the error message is), then they installed other patches 106980-09 106541-09 109104-01 107544-02 and these patches fixed that problem. You may ask DBA to set oracle trace so you could know what happened.
