smo 3.2 profile create failed [ Edited ]

[#1]

Help please. The command failed when SMO tried to check storage location / to see if it is snapshot capable, but I do not use / for anything for my Oracle installation.

Thanks

Looks like some Oracle datafiles are on root directory.

This is what I have:

SQL> select NAME from v$datafile;

NAME

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

/home/ora11/data/system01.dbf

/home/ora11/data/sysaux01.dbf

/home/ora11/data/undotbs01.dbf

/home/ora11/data/tsdata.dbf

/home/ora11/data/tsindex.dbf

SQL> select name from v$controlfile;

NAME

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

/home/ora11/ctl/control01.ctl

/home/ora11/ctl/control02.ctl

/home/ora11/ctl/control03.ctl

SQL> select member from v$logfile;

MEMBER

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

/home/ora11/redo/redo01.log

/home/ora11/redo/redo02.log

/home/ora11/redo/redo03.log

Hi Jimshomer,

I see that your datafiles , controlfiles, redolog files and archivelogs are laying on the different places/catalogs but these files also must be laid on the separate volume groups.

E.x 1:

/volume_group1/lvol1               /home/ora11/data/system01.dbf

/volume_group1/lvol2               /home/ora11/ctl/control01.ctl

Result : It will not work

You can put redolog files and controlfiles into the same place and the same volume group without problem.

E.x 2:

/volume_group1/lvol1     /home/ora11/data/system01.dbf

/volume_group2/lvol1     /home/ora11/ctl/control01.ct 

Result : It will be OK

Please check your volume settings

Regards

Tien

Where are your archived redo logs stored?  SMO seems to be being told by Oracle that there is some data in / it needs to back up.

Hi Chris,

I store archivelog on the separate catalog from catalogs where controlfiles,redologs and datafiles are existing. Please try to take a backup on your database where archivelogs and datafiles are on the same catalog. You'll how it's going on .

Thank you guys, I made a mistake not setting my archive log destination to the preconfigured netapp volume but to the flash recovery area which is on a local disk. I looked at the smo logs and realized the problem at the point where SMO issued the command df to figure out the volumes for the archived log, redo log, etc.

Thanks again
