Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: EMC BCV Splits and Hot Backup mode.
Glenn,
My understanding is that you need to "account for" the time it takes to start and complete the BCV split. The only way to do this is to put the tablespace in hot backup mode so that you can "recover" the tablespace when you bring the database up on the copied system.
If you do not do this, then the tablespaces are all out of sync with the control file, and you have no way of recovering them.
This is different from losing a mirror disk. In this case, the raid hardware is simply going to recover a complete volume for you.
What we want to do here is to recover *individual files* using the Oracle software.
hope this helps

It is my understanding that the common implementation of copying an Oracle database on an EMC using BCVs is this;
Question:
Why is it necessary to put the database in 'hot backup' mode when splitting
a BCV? If it is just like splitting a mirror, why do you need the database
in hot backup mode at all? Wouldn't it be the same as losing one side of a
mirrored pair? When that happens, no extra processing is needed.
