Data Protection 14
File System Protection UNIX / Linux / Windows and NAS Devices File System Data File system backup / restore management EM 10g Grid Control Release 5, OSB web tool or unified command line Recurring backup schedule or Backup Now Full, incremental, and offsite backup levels Backup / restore of Network Attached Storage (NAS) devices using Network Data Management Protocol (NDMP) Standards-compliant tape format: extended TAR or NDMP dump Tree-style catalog browsing for restoration to original or alternate location Automatic recall of tapes located offsite to perform the restore operation Refer to the certification matrix on metalink.oracle.com for list of supported platforms, operating systems and NAS devices 15
Oracle Database Protection RMAN and OSB Integration Oracle Database RMAN Integration Oracle database backup / recovery management Utilize RMAN or Oracle EM (DB Control or Grid Control) restoring to original or alternate location Oracle Secure Backup provides the media management layer for RMAN Exclusive performance optimizations achieving 25 40% faster backup Unused block compression Eliminate backup of committed undo Vaulting integrations identifying and recalling offsite tape for restore Encrypted backups using either OSB encryption (host-based or LTO-4) or RMAN encryption capabilities Metadata regarding RMAN backup pieces is maintained within OSB catalog Volumes may be queried for list of backup pieces contained by volume User-defined tape retention methodology for Oracle database backups Leverage RMAN retention parameters (content-managed tapes) RMAN delete obsolete command updates OSB catalog Expiration time associated with the tape and defined via OSB (time-managed tapes) OSB Differentiator 16
Backup Encryption and Key Management Host-based and Hardware Encryption Options OSB Host-based Encryption: Encryption performed on the host AES128, AES192 or AES256 algorithms New In OSB 10.3 LTO-4 Tape Drive Encryption: Encryption performed by the LTO-4 tape drive AES256 algorithm Backups from NAS hosts may be encrypted Seamless Encryption Key Management Encryption policies defined at global or host level Encryption keys stored centrally on OSB Administrative Server Encrypted backup are automatically decrypted during restoration within the same backup domain 17
Backup Encryption To Tape Policy-Based Key Management Backup Encryption Policies Encryption Key Policies OSB encrypted backups will utilize host encryption settings except: Transient backup encryption explicitly defined during Backup Now operation OSB backup encryption configured: Scheduled or Backup Now file system backup RMAN backup using OB_ENCRYPTION parameter If RMAN encrypts the backup it will not be re-encrypted using OSB encryption 18
Device Utilization 19
Broad Tape Device Support Physical and Virtual Devices Partners: ADIC Dell HP Quantum Sony Copan Systems EMC IBM Qualstar Spectra Logic Data Domain FalconStor Overland Storage Sepaton Sun / StorageTek Support for over 200 new and legacy devices SCSI, Fibre, SAS and iscsi connectivity 20
Automated Tape Duplication VTL Physical Tape Library Traditional Tape Duplication Media Server Server-less Tape Duplication VTL Administrative Server New In OSB 10.3 Server-less Tape Duplication Increased duplication performance Eliminates data movement through media server OSB catalog updated with metadata of duplicate tape VTL must support NDMP tape copy functionality Media Server Physical Tape Library Duplicated backup data Metadata, control messages 21
Device Configuration - Accuracy Verify Utility and Policy New In OSB 10.3 Tape Library Storage Elements DTE1 DTE2 DTE3 Attach points Houston, we have a problem Media Server Vfylibs utility should be run after any device updates Serial number checking policy proactively queries for device changes OSB vfylibs command verifies accuracy of configuration Device policy, checkserialnumbers, identifies drive changes alerting possible mis-configuration 22
Advanced Media Management 23
The Life of Backup Tapes Media Lifecycle Management Typical Scenario Typical Media Requirements Backup to same tape(s) for up to 1 week then close tape(s) so it can t be further appended Once tapes are closed to further update; duplicate them for on and offsite storage requirements Retention for on and offsite set of tapes: Onsite tapes retained for 2 months Retain within the tape library for 1 week, then move to storage cabinet for 7 weeks Offsite tapes sent to alternate location to be stored for 3 years Once tape retention period expires, return to a tape device for reuse For restoration needs: Use available onsite tapes during 2 month retain time; afterwards, recall tapes from offsite location for restoration 24
Media Management: Retention, Duplication and Vaulting Tapes managed from first write to reuse based on user-defined media families, duplication and rotation policies 25
Tape Management As Easy as 1,2,3,4,5. Define tape pools, storage locations, policies and schedules: 1 3 5 Media Family(s) 2 Storage* Location(s) 4 Policies: Vaulting, Duplication Association: Map policy(s) to media family Schedules: Vaulting, duplication -NEW vaulting schedule granularity by media family and/or location in OSB 10.3 *OSB automatically defines active locations(tape devices) for all configured devices. 26
Managing Tape Vaulting Vaulting scan generates a media movement job Vault Now, one-off scan outside of regular schedule New in OSB 10.3 Based on triggers associated with Vaulting Scan Schedules Media Movement job includes all tapes eligible for rotation per policy This job can run automatically or have pending status until run by user Each media movement job has associated pick and distribution report Vaulted tapes have in transit location status until user confirms arrival at vault location New in OSB 10.3 Reporting Pick and distribution reports Location, schedule, exception and missing reports 27
Automated Tape Duplication Tape duplication may occur per policy or on one-off, on-demand basis Migrate option copies the tape then deletes the original Commonly used to reclaim space on VTL for backup jobs Seamlessly restore from original or duplicate tape OSB will automatically choose tape in closest physical proximity Original and duplicate tapes uniquely identified within OSB catalog Duplicate tapes may have the same or different retention and rotation schedule Duplicate X Media Family Original : X Media Family Duplicate Y Media Family 28
Policy-Based Media Management In Action 2-Month Retention For Original Tapes 3-Year Retention For Duplicated Tapes Tapes duplicated to another media family may have different retention and rotation schedule than original tape 29
