Creating, resynchronizing, or reverse resynchronizing a snapshot
database using dbed_vmsnap
You can use the dbed_vmsnap command to create a snapshot image of a database.
The snapshot can be used locally or on another host that is physically attached
to the shared storage. You can also resynchronize the snapshot image back to the
primary database.
The dbed_vmsnap command is supported by Veritas Storage Foundation for Oracle
RAC; however, only creating and resynchronizing a database are supported.
Before creating, resynchronizing, or reverse resynchronizing a snapshot database,
review the following information:
■ You must be logged in as the Oracle database administrator.
■ You must create and validate a snapplan using
dbed_vmchecksnap before you can create a snapshot image with
dbed_vmsnap.
