Hello Friends,
I am quite new to the sapdb. I tried to use external backup tools backint
for sapdb and oracle.
I downloaded free sapdb-server-sun-32bit-sparc-7_3_0_25. There is a backint
with it.
I checked the online doc for the configuration prosedures of Backint for
Sap DB connections as follows:
Create an appropriate backup medium
<../../55/a81d30451f11d5992400508b6b8b11/content.htm> with the Database
Manager.
Set the environment variable BSI_ENV (Setting the Environment
Variable BSI_ENV <../../55/a81d33451f11d5992400508b6b8b11/content.htm>).
Create a configuration file
<../../55/a81d36451f11d5992400508b6b8b11/content.htm> (see also: Example
Configuration File <../../55/a81d39451f11d5992400508b6b8b11/content.htm>).
If you want to perform parallel backups, note the information in the
parallel backups <../../f6/c0f23ab8b38b7ce10000000a11402f/content.htm>
section.
Test the following procedures:
Back Up with External Backup Tools
<../../91/24b980483411d5992500508b6b8b11/content.htm>
Restore with External Backup Tools
<../../9e/9b775449d811d5992500508b6b8b11/content.htm>
About the first step, create the backup medium, it said,
Definition of a pipe as a medium for an
incremental data backup with a DBMCLI command (Windows):
dbmcli -d <database_name> -u <user_id>,<password>
medium_put BACK123 \\.\pipe\Example pipe pages
The backup medium must be a pipe and must not have any capacity limits.
The name of the pipe must be specified as an absolute path. The pipes used
must not exist.
* Windows: Pipe names must be in the following form:
\\.\pipe\<pipe_name>
* UNIX: There are no particular naming conventions to follow for pipe
names
I do not understand what is the pipe?
How to define it?
How to define datafiles I want to backup with pipes?
Could I execute backint directly or have to via dbmcli or dbmgui?
Thanks for your answers in advance!
