NMO Licensing

[denisfr]

Hello,

is there a way to know how are 'mapped' NMO modules with clients ?

I've an AIX server with 4 NMO licence (for oracle 7/unix, type D6) remaining (according to nsrlic), but I can't do any job with a client (oracle 10 under solaris).

I've found in my daemon.log lines like that (for 2 clients):

server info: The feature "NetWorker Module for Oracle, UNIX Client/1" is not properly enabled. for client XXXX

So, if someone can give me a clue to understand something...

Thanks in advance.

is there a nwora.res file on your client ?
if not run "nsrnmoadmin -r list" on the client

There wasn't nwora.res file. After running nsrnmoadmin command, the file was created, but with very 'standard' data :

NSR_NWPATH=/usr/sbin

NSR_ORACLECAT_MODE=undetermined

NSR_REMOVE_ON_FAILURE=FALSE

NSR_ORACLECAT_LOG_FILE=

NSR_ORACLECAT_DEBUG_FILE=

No clue for me to find which client is mapped to which NMO license.

now you should be able to backup your oracle data.
for your "client-to-lcense maspping" use nsrlic -vvv.

No way, I cannot backup, same client message :

...is not licensed ... for client ...

nsrlic always shows 4 free licenses

logon to the oracle server using the oracle account

create a rman command file like the following :
( you have tu substitue system/manager with appropriate credentials aund mynetworkerServer wirh the servers name)

connect target system/manager
run {

sql"ALTER SYSTEM SWITCH LOGFILE";
sql"ALTER SYSTEM ARCHIVE LOG CURRENT";
set command id to "My:instance";
allocate channel t1 type SBT PARMS "SBT_LIBRARY=/usr/lib/libnwora.so,
ENV=(NSR_SERVER=mynetworkerServer, NSR_SAVESET_BROWSE='1 week',
NSR_SAVESET_RETENTION='1 week', NSR_GROUP=Default,
NSR_DATA_VOLUME_POOL=Default)";
backup full filesperset 4
format "/FULL_%d_%u/"
(database);
backup full filesperset 30
(archivelog all format '/a1_%s_%p/');
release channel t1;
DELETE ARCHIVELOG ALL BACKED UP 3 TIMES TO DEVICE TYPE SBT;

}

save the config file e.g with the name ~/oraman.txt
now run $ORACLE_HOME/bin/rman cmdfile=~/oraman.txt

Now you can capture the output and post it here

Finally, I got explanation from EMC (I opened a case, but due to latency...).

My NMO licenses where D6 type which are incompatible with 7.3.3.

I must migrate to D35 type.
