     [ -l DIRECTORY ] [ -n ] [ -h ] [ -i ]


AVAILABILITY

Veritas Storage Foundation for Oracle. To determine whether this product is installed on an \1 system, enter:

DESCRIPTION

The dbed_saveconfig command is used to collect and record configuration information on Oracle, Veritas products, and system hardware. Information is gathered in the context of a specified Oracle database. This facility is also available from the GUI.

The utility gathers enough information to allow an administrator to reconstruct a system and database from scratch in the event of a complete system failure. The information collected is in the form of many system configuration files and the results of querying the system hardware, Veritas products, and Oracle.

The dbed_saveconfig output displays the location where configuration has been saved.


OPTIONS

The following options are supported:
-S ORACLE_SID
Specifies the name of the Oracle database for which the configuration will be saved.
-H ORACLE_HOME
The ORACLE_HOME setting for the ORACLE_SID database.
-l DIRECTORY
An optional directory for storing configuration information. If this option is not supplied, then the data will be stored in a temporary directory under /tmp.
-n
Disables SFDB repository refresh. By default, dbed_saveconfig will refresh the SFDB repository if this option is not supplied.
-h
Shows command usage.
-i
Sets interactive mode.

EXAMPLE

$ /opt/VRTS/bin/dbed_saveconfig -S PROD -H /oracle/product/9i

System configuration information saved to directory:
