3. Run the BRBACKUP command. The command syntax depends on whether you
are logged in to the application system or backup system:
Application system:
brbackup -t {online_split | offline_split | online_mirror
| offline_mirror} [–q split] -d util_file -m all -c -u
user / password
Backup system:
brbackup -t {online_mirror | offline_mirror} [–q split]
-d util_file -m all -c -u user / password
The
-q split
option is required if
OB2DISKONLY
is set to
1
.
Configuring SAP compliant ZDB sessions
SAP R/3 standards recommend that, in ZDB sessions that use the
splitint
backup
interface, BRBACKUP is started on the backup system and not on the application
system. You can configure Data Protector to comply with these standards by setting
the Data Protector
OB2_MIRROR_COMP
environmental variable to
1
. The variable is
saved in the Data Protector SAP R/3 instance configuration file. Consequently, in all
splitint
ZDB sessions for this SAP R/3 instance, BRBACKUP will be started on
the backup system. By default, BRBACKUP is started on the application system.
Set the
OB2_MIRROR_COMP
environmental variable using the Data Protector GUI or
CLI.
NOTE:
If no backup specification for the related SAP R/3 instance exists, you cannot use the
Data Protector CLI to set the
OB2_MIRROR_COMP
variable.
Using the Data Protector GUI
You can set the
OB2_MIRROR_COMP
variable when you create a backup specification
or modify an existing one:
