RMAN Backup Steps RMAN Backups - Online Database Backups - Solaris RMAN Backups - Online Database Backups Step

1. Start RMAN ORACLE_SID=HMDEV; export ORACLE_SID rman target=backup_admin/backup_admin@HMDEV catalog=rcat_user/rcat_user@RECO Step 2. Configure the necessary parameters. configure controlfile autobackup ON; configure controlfile autobackup format for device type disk to 'd:\backup_test\ %F'; configure channel device type disk format '/crmg/home/oracle92/rman_backups/bkup _%d_%s_%p'; (The below step is optional, if you want to store the backups in another server you need to setup NFS) Step 3. Set NFS mount for /crmg/home/oracle92/rman_backups - Solaris On the Server where u want to copy the files vi /etc/dfs/dfstab share -F nfs -o rw=190.2.12.113 -d "share" /crmg/home/oracle92/rman_backups /etc/init.d/nfs.server stop /etc/init.d/nfs.server start On the database server mkdir /rman_backups # dfshares 190.2.12.114 RESOURCE SERVER ACCESS TRANSPORT 190.2.12.114:/crmg/home/oracle92/rman_backups 190.2.12.114 - mount 190.2.12.114:/crmg/home/oracle92/rman_backups /rman_backups Step 4.
