Table 13 SAP R/3 backup options
DescriptionOption
If you want to create a backint log file during backup, specify a
pathname for the file. By default, this file is not created because
Data Protector stores all relevant information about backup
sessions in the database.
Log file
Specifies BRBACKUP options.
For example, for online backup using the splitint interface,
type -t online_mirror . If splitint is not supported by
BRTOOLS, type -t online_split.
To run BRBACKUP under a different Oracle database user than
the one specified during the configuration, type -u user_name.
BR Backup
Lists BRBACKUP options passed by omnisap.exe. The list is
displayed after you save the backup specification.
Backup Objects
Specifies BRARCHIVE options.
Not applicable for ZDB to disk.
BR Archive
Groups files into subsets of approximately equal sizes. The subsets
are then backed up concurrently by Data Protector sapback
programs.
If your backup devices use hardware compression, the sizes of
the original and backed up files differ. To inform Data Protector
of this, specify the original sizes of the backed up files in the
compression section of the Data Protector SAP R/3
configuration file. See “Data Protector SAP R/3 configuration
file” on page 167.
