 Introduction -Oracle Database Backup Cloud Service

• ODBS complements your existing backup strategy

• Use familiar RMAN interface to perform backup & restore operations
• Provides an off-site storage location

• No up-front capital costs or hardware expenses.

• Storage management & data transfer complexities are handled by the
service
• Pay-as-you-go, elastic self-provisioning mode - Scale capacity on demand

• Create secure, encrypted backups in an off-premises location

• Oracle ONLY accepts secured encrypted backups

17
Backup/Recovery General Guidelines

Following are general guidelines customers typically follow to address RTO and
RPO requirements:

• Local - Fast Recovery Area (FRA): Typically stores backups for up to 7

days
• External Storage (NAS): up to 30 days

• Tape media (if available): 1 to 6 months

• Tape vaulting (offsite storage): months to years

18
RMAN Step By Step Configuration

19
Database Cloud Backup Service – Easy as 1-2-3 (4 and 5)

1. Subscribing to the Backup service

2. Download the Oracle Database Cloud Backup Module

3. Install the Oracle Database Cloud Backup Module

4. Configure RMAN Backup Channel

5. Backup the database

Oracle Cloud Downloads:

Recovery Manager (RMAN) as tool of choice
• Oracle database integrated backup & recovery tool
• No new learning curve for the DBAs

• ASO and Compression bundled w/ Oracle Database Backup Cloud with no additional cost
• Perform SET, CONFIGURE, BACKUP, RESTORE & RECOVER operations at various levels
• Database, data file, tablespace, table, block

• Options:
• Backs up to disk then to the cloud
• Backup directly to the cloud
• Requires Media Management Layer (MML) knowledge to backup to cloud

• Simple commands
RMAN> BACKUP DATABASE;
RMAN> RESTORE DATABASE;
 Backup & Recovery to OPC
What:
• Create secure, encrypted backup off site
• Oracle only accepts encrypted backups
Benefits:
• Create secure, encrypted backups in an off-
premises location
• Store backups using reliable 3-way mirroring
• Familiar using simple standard RMAN
commands
• Scale capacity on demand
Some Best Practices:
• Weekly Full
• Daily Incremental
• Archive to Oracle Storage Cloud
• Use multiple RMAN channels for
higher parallelism
• Use multi-section backups
• Example: BACKUP DEVICE TYPE SBT
DATABASE SECTION SIZE 1g;
• Oracle recommends using MEDIUM
compression for cloud backups
• Use the RMAN Fast Incremental
Backup feature (based on Block
Change Tracking)
Additional Best Practices
Increase PARALLELISM (until you reach acceptable network throughput or hit max
throughput capable with the existing network)
RMAN> CONFIGURE DEVICE TYPE 'SBT_TAPE' PARALLELISM 4 BACKUP TYPE TO
BACKUPSET;

To determine network throughput for a specific time period, use RMAN network analyzer,
see MOS note 2022086.1
To diagnose Oracle Cloud Backup Performance, see MOS note 2078576.1.

» Consider scheduling additional archived log backups to reduce RPO

» Download and run Installer at least once every two months to pick up latest RMAN
SBT module
» Configure CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP ON

 Oracle Cloud Storage - Archive
• Customers can use Archive containers to store data that won't be accessed for
a while or that will be accessed infrequently.

• It is ideally suited for data sets such as corporate financial records, medical and
pharmaceutical archives, cultural preservation content, insurance records and
digital film masters.

• CloudBerry Explorer provides a sleak user interface to Cloud Archive Storage,

allowing easy movement of data from local folder to Cloud Archive

• An Archive container is a container for which the X-Storage-Class metadata field

is set to Archive.

Tips for 1st timers
Oracle Linux ships with UEK 3.8
rpm -e kernel-uek-3.8.13-98.7.1.el7uek.x86_64
rpm -e kernel-uek-firmware-3.8.13-98.7.1.el7uek.noarch
Requires Oracle Linux 7
Requires Docker
Some Best Practices (Min 16GB RAM)
For filesystems with the number of files up to 5 million,
the required amount of memory is 32 GB.
For large filesystems with the number of files up to 10
million, the required amount of memory is 64 GB
Storage Cloud Software Appliance has a UEL 4+ requirement
Must upgrade to UEK 4.1
yum install kernel-uek
* Will pull in the kernel UEK firmware RPM
New learning curve for old timers
Not Red Hat 7 but OL 7 with UEK
New technology for old timers
* It is one of the hottest technologies now
Do not modify or maintain OSCSA container with curl REST API
Will cause inconsistency --> not recoverable
1. Start with a read cache setting that is 50% of the size of the local storage volume
2. Provision a volume that can accommodate the local cache and ingest new files
(upload buffer) without ever becoming more than 80% full
3. Multiple disks (hard disk drives or solid state drives) in a RAID10
4. Enable read-ahead on the volume.
5. Ensure that the number of objects stored in an appliance filesystem doesn’t exceed
one million (10,000,000)
6. bin-pack or zip small files before writing them to the appliance.
7. However, for optimal performance, ensure that each filesystem is hosted on a
dedicated appliance
