Copying a snapplan

If you want to create a snapplan similar to an existing snapplan, you can simply create a copy of the existing snapplan and modify it. To copy a snapplan from the VxDBA repository to your current directory, the snapplan must not already be present in the current directory.

 To copy a snapplan from the VxDBA repository to your current directory

• Use the dbed_vmchecksnap command as follows:

  $ /opt/VRTS/bin/dbed_vmchecksnap -S ORACLE_SID \

  -f SNAPPLAN -o copy

In the following example, the snapplan, snap1, is copied from the VxDBA repository to the current directory.

$ /opt/VRTS/bin/dbed_vmchecksnap -S PROD \

-f snap1 -o copy

Copying 'snap1' to '/export/snap_dir'
