Hi Experts,

     I am trying to optimize my backup process. And i was just wondering if there is a way i can produce a online_cons (online consistent) backup using DB13? Any feedback would be a huge help. A huge thanks in advance.

Just create a script with the arguments mentioned in this link and put it in the crontab (Unix) or Scheduled tasks (Windows).

Do i just make a batch file for windows and put BRBACKUP option -t|-type online_cons or is there more options i need to consider?

No, online_cons is not available in DB13.

If you have to use online_cons, you should make a script on OS and run it under Cron/Batch.

Hi ,

Can try to do this way but not suggested

GO to se16 table SDBAC

set the field DBSYS to "ORACLE" and choose "Execute

The try to see if you can try adding an entry or changing the command as this below.

This command is needed to take backup.

BRBACKUP call in the source system:

brbackup -u / -d stage_copy -m all -t online_cons [-e <n>] [-c]

This is just an example where to change the command.

Thanks

please note, this is not recommended by SAP.

859450  - Maintenance of the DB13-command table SDBAC

better make a small script and schedule it in Crontab.
