Restoring an Oracle RAC Table to Its Current Location (In Place)

You can restore Oracle RAC tables to the same location. By default, when you restore tables to the source database, the restore operation overwrites the existing tables in the destination database.

Before You Begin

The Collect table metadata option for the subclient must be enabled for any backups you want to use for restoring tables. For more information, see Adding Oracle RAC Subclients.

Procedure

1. From the navigation pane, go to Protect > Databases.

   The database overview page appears.

2. On the Instances tab, click the instance.

   The instance properties page appears.

3. On the Overview tab, in the Recovery points section, select the backup to restore, and then click RESTORE.

   The Backup content page appears.

4. From the Tablespace view list at the top of the window, select Table view.

   The database's list of tables appears.

5. Select the tables that you want to restore, and then for each selected table, click the Actions button to select or deselect dependent or referenced tables.

   • Click Dump to save the table export dump files to the staging location.

   • Click Import to overwrite the current tables.

    The staging path must have enough free space for the control file, the Oracle diagnostic directory, and the required tablespaces.
