Configuration Wizard and setup_ora.sh

Edit online

When you run the Configuration Wizard, you provide the details for the configuration of the product. The setup_ora.sh script is used to call the IBM® Storage Protect Snapshot Configuration Wizard at any time to update your configuration, update the profile, or reconfigure the product.

The configuration of IBM Storage Protect Snapshot uses the following command syntax:

setup_ora.sh -a action -d <Instance owner $HOME directory>

For configuring IBM Storage Protect Snapshot for Oracle, the following command is used.

setup_ora.sh

You can use the Configuration Wizard for the following purposes:

Upgrade of IBM Storage Protect Snapshot for one instance-specific installation, as root user:
```
setup_ora.sh –a install –d <Instance owner $HOME directory>
```
Run the configuration from the installation directory.
Initial configuration and reconfiguration. Run this command as the database instance owner to launch the Configuration Wizard:
```
setup_ora.sh
```
Stopping an activated instance:
```
setup_ora.sh –a stop –d <Instance owner $HOME directory>
```
The command must run as the database instance owner.
Starting an activated instance:
```
setup_type.sh –a start –d <Instance owner $HOME directory>
```
The command must be run as the database instance owner.
Disabling a stopped instance:
```
setup_type.sh –a disable –d <Instance owner $HOME directory>
```
The command must be run as the database instance owner.

For a typical configuration, these commands are run on a production system. There are some scenarios where these commands need to be run on a backup system. If you are running the commands on both systems, when you stop or disable IBM Storage Protect Snapshot, run the command on the production system before the backup system.

The setup script can be used to install IBM Storage Protect Snapshot on multiple backup nodes from the production server. As a prerequisite, Open Secure Shell (OpenSSH) must be installed on all of the nodes in the backup server. NFS shares between the production server and backup server nodes are not required for this type of remote installation. OpenSSH is the preferred method for IBM Storage Protect Snapshot.

The script must be run from the database instance-specific installation directory:

(Oracle) Instance owner $HOME directory/acs/

The default action, setup, is run and the instance is configured.

If the script is called without parameters, it can be issued as the instance owner. The script creates a profile or changes an existing profile, and updates the daemon jobs according to the current profile (production system) or user preference (backup system).

If IBM Storage Protect Snapshot cannot be stopped, stop IBM Storage Protect Snapshot on the production system before you launch the Configuration Wizard with the -a install -d <Instance owner $HOME directory> options.
