 1. Installation and configuration of SP for Oracle

1) Move the TDP Oracle 8.x package to Target Server

2) Unzip the package

3) Install the Package using InstallP

3.1 installp -agYXd [Link] [Link]

[Link].64bit [Link].64bit

4) Edit the [Link] /usr/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin64/[Link] and link the file

ln -s /usr/tivoli/tsm/client/api/bin64/[Link] /usr/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin64/[Link]

Add the nodename , TCPServeraddress according to DEV/UAT IP address

ServerName ORACLE

nodename INVDBDV_ORA

COMMMethod TCPip

TCPPort 11500

TCPServeraddress [Link]

domain ALL-LOCAL

schedlogname /home/oracle/TSM/dsmsched_Oracle.log

passworddir /home/oracle/TSM

managedservices schedule
4) Create [Link] on /usr/tivoli/tsm/client/oracle/bin64

[Link]

Servername ORACLE

5) Create [Link] on /usr/tivoli/tsm/client/oracle/bin64 pointing to [Link]

DSMI_ORC_CONFIG /usr/tivoli/tsm/client/oracle/bin64/[Link]

6) Create a symbolic Link to library file using ROOT USER

ln -s /usr/tivoli/tsm/client/oracle/bin64/libobk64.a (Oracle_Home)/lib/libobk.a

For Ex:

ln -s /usr/tivoli/tsm/client/oracle/bin64/libobk64.a
/u01/app/oracle/product/[Link]/dbhome_1/lib/libobk.a

7) Create password file

dsmc set password passw0rd passw0rd type=tsm -servername=ORACLE

 2.2 Retention of Backups
Daily backup Retention – 31 Days
Weekly Backup - 90 Days
Monthly Backup - 1 Year
Yearly Backup - 5 Years

Retention is controlled in RMAN script using following command ( For ex:)

DELETE FORCE NOPROMPT BACKUPSET TAG 'MONTHLY_FULL_DB_BKUP' COMPLETED

BEFORE 'SYSDATE-366';

2.3 Backup Schedule

Weekly backup is performed on Saturday of every week ,
Monthly backup is scheduled on last week Saturday
Yearly backup is scheduled on last Saturday of December

Backup is scheduled from Crontab on Oracle User Instance ID

2.4 How to perform Backup

Rman script is located at /home/Oracle/TSM/[Link]
It is invoked by 2 positional paramaters

1 Parameter is for backup Type – Daily , Weekly , Monthly or Yearly

2 Parameter is for Oracle Instance to perform backup

./[Link] Daily INVIEW51 &

Log file will be generated in /home/Oracle/TSM/logs

 3. FAQS
1) Can Same Instance backup Triggered multiple times at same time

No ,Script File creates a lock file during backup and it prevents from running multiple backup at the
same time , following message will be displayed in log file
