# 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).

Example

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

The tenant database global.ini file.

    log_backup_parameter_file = /usr/sap/NAP/SYS/global/hdb/opt/hdbconfig/param
    log_backup_using_backint = true

## 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_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).

       sde-sslhana1:~ # su - napadm
      napadm@sde-sslhana1:/usr/sap/$[SID]/HDB02> cdglo
      napadm@sde-sslhana1:/usr/sap/$[SID]/SYS/global> cat hdb/custom/config/global.ini
      # global.ini last modified 2020-06-11 00:00:52.600861 by hdbnameserver
      [backup]
      parallel_data_backup_backint_channels = 4
      catalog_backup_parameter_file = /usr/sap/$[SID]/SYS/global/hdb/opt/hdbconfig/param
      catalog_backup_using_backint = true
      backint_response_timeout = 1800
      data_backup_parameter_file =
      log_backup_parameter_file = /usr/sap/$[SID]/SYS/global/hdb/opt/hdbconfig/param
      log_backup_using_backint = true

  The tenant database global.ini file.

       napadm@sde-sslhana1:/usr/sap/$[SID]/SYS/global> cat hdb/custom/config/<TN1>/global.ini
      # global.ini last modified 2020-06-11 00:00:51.278146 by hdbnameserver
      [backup]
      parallel_data_backup_backint_channels = 4
      catalog_backup_parameter_file = /usr/sap/$[SID]/SYS/global/hdb/opt/hdbconfig/param
      catalog_backup_using_backint = true
      backint_response_timeout = 1800
      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

  Example

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

  The SYSTEMDB global.ini file.
