Re: EBU

I use EBU in combination with ADSM. It works quite fine and easy. Actually, there are three softwares involved :

1. adsm software (IBM)
2. adsm connect agent for Oracle (IBM)
3. ebu (Oracle)

Ebu has to have a special library "libobk.a" to interact with the connect agent.
Ebu gives its orders to the agent and the agent tells adsm to backup.

Of course, everything has to be configured before you can backup a database with
ebu and adsm.

example of how we backup our database :

environment :

export ORACLE_SID=DBA1
export ORACLE_HOME=/softa/app/oracle/product/734 export OBK_HOME=$ORACLE_HOME/obackup
export EBU_HOME=$ORACLE_HOME/obackup
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$OBK_HOME/lib:$ORACLE_HOME/lib

script olbu_DBA1.bu :
backup online database
db_name="DBA1"
parallel=4
archivelog
archdelete
buffer_size=256
disk_io_size=128
tape_io_size=128
trace=/softa/output/trace_ebu.log
log="/softa/output/olbu_DBA1.log"

running script :

/softa/app/oracle/product/734/obackup/bin/ebu /softa/dbascripts/backup/olbu_DBA1.bu
