I like use savepnpc for shutdown Oracle DB on NDMP client before start backing up this client.

have a look into esg57139:
Goal: Is there a way to add pre- and post- processing for NDMP backups, similar to using savepnpc?

Goal: pre- and post-processing for NDMP

Fact: Auspex NS3010

Fact: NDMP Client Connections

Symptom: Cannot add pre- and post-processing for NDMP backups

Fix: No, there is currently no way to add pre- and post-processing for NDMP backups.

So I belive you have to script that functionality on your own.

Hi Suwan:

Unfortunately, NO. savepnpc is NOT supported with NDMP. Keep in mind that NDMP is a protocol that makes a tcp/ip connection to the client and then calls the native backup utility that is part of the client's OS to perform the backup.

savepnpc is a NetWorker "feature" that requires NetWorker client side software to operate. There is no NW software installed on a NAS filer. This is also why you cannot do things like use directives OR archiving.

Not the answer you wanted I am sure, but hope it helps.

Rita Mines

Thank you all guys.
