Verifying the global.ini File When Using the backint Interface for Single and Multiple Database Containers

  • View, or edit the global.ini files for the SYSTEMDB database and all tenant databases and make sure that there are entries that set the catalog backup to true, and set the backup parameter file.

    The entries look similar to the following example.

    The SID is SID and has a SYSTEMDB and a tenant database (TN1).

     
    sde-sslhana1:~ # su - napadm

    Example

    In this example, the SID is NAP and has a SYSTEMDB and a tenant database (DB_NAP).

    The SYSTEMDB global.ini file.

Procedure

Single Database

  • View, or edit the global.ini file and make sure that there is an entry that sets the catalog backup to true, and sets the backup parameter file.

    The entries look similar to the following example, where SID represents the database SID.

     
    sde-sslhana1:~ # su - sddadm
sddadm@sde-sslhana1:/usr/sap/<SID>/HDB03> cdglo
sddadm@sde-sslhana1:/usr/sap/<SID>/SYS/global> cat hdb/custom/config/global.ini
[backup]
parallel_data_backup_backint_channels = 4
data_backup_parameter_file = /usr/sap/<SID>/SYS/global/hdb/opt/hdbconfig/param
log_backup_parameter_file = /usr/sap/<SID>/SYS/global/hdb/opt/hdbconfig/param
log_backup_using_backint = true
catalog_backup_parameter_file = /usr/sap/<SID>/SYS/global/hdb/opt/hdbconfig/param
catalog_backup_using_backint = true
backint_response_timeout = 1800

    Example

    sde-sslhana1:~ # su - sddadm
sddadm@sde-sslhana1:/usr/sap/SDD/HDB03> cdglo
sddadm@sde-sslhana1:/usr/sap/SDD/SYS/global> cat hdb/custom/config/global.ini
[backup]
parallel_data_backup_backint_channels = 4
data_backup_parameter_file = /usr/sap/SDD/SYS/global/hdb/opt/hdbconfig/param

log_backup_using_backint = true
catalog_backup_parameter_file = /usr/sap/SDD/SYS/global/hdb/opt/hdbconfig/param
catalog_backup_using_backint = true
backint_response_timeout = 1800

Multitenant Database Container

  • View, or edit the global.ini files for the SYSTEMDB database and all tenant databases and make sure that there are entries that set the catalog backup to true, and set the backup parameter file.

    The entries look similar to the following example.

    The SID is SID and has a SYSTEMDB and a tenant database (TN1).
