Considerations • You can only use the GUI to view Oracle resource properties. Procedure 1. In the navigation pane select Oracle. 2. On the appropriate tab, select the Oracle resource whose properties you want to view. 3. Select Actions > View Properties. An Oracle properties window opens. Oracle resource concepts Oracle replication (backup) and restore (recovery) overview The replication manager's optional Oracle-integration features simplify and automate replication (backup) and restore (recovery) procedures for Oracle resources. In addition, these features provide the ability to mount copies on a separate host for batch processing, data mining, application testing, data warehousing, or other processes that need an independent copy of an Oracle database. Online (hot) backups The replication manager puts Oracle resources in the online (hot) backup mode for only a few seconds while the virtual disks comprising the Oracle resources are backed up. This greatly improves an Oracle server's overall performance, and I/O, compared to normal online backups. Information about each backup is maintained in repositories and is displayed in the GUI. See repositories and viewing Oracle resources. • You can use the GUI to create backups on demand. See replicating Oracle resources using the GUI. • You can also create backups by running a job on-demand or at scheduled times. See replicating Oracle resources using jobs. Recoveries and migrations The replication manager can recover Oracle resources by presenting and dynamically mounting backups of virtual disks on the original server. The replication manager can also present and dynamically mount backups of virtual disks on different servers than the original (migration). This allows other operations, such as tape backups or data mining, to be performed on a different host, which further improves the original Oracle server's overall performance by eliminating loads due to other applications and operations. • You can use the GUI to perform recoveries and migrations on-demand. See restoring Oracle resources using the GUI. • You can also perform recoveries and migrations by running a job on-demand or at scheduled times. See restoring Oracle resources using jobs. Considerations • All relevant Oracle resources must be located on supported HP storage arrays that are available to the replication manager. See Oracle-integration license policies. • Each array must have an HP application-integration license for Oracle. See Oracle-integration licenses overview. • The Oracle applications must be located on servers that are running replication manager host agents. • For support details, see the HP StorageWorks EVA software compatibility reference. 396 Oracle
