PowerProtect Data Manager 19.10 Oracle RMAN User Guide
Troubleshooting self-service operations with data-in-flight encryption
PowerProtect Data Manager supports in-flight encryption for both centralized and self-service Oracle backup and restore operations. The /opt/dpsapps/agentsvc/Addons/global_config.json file on the Oracle client contains option settings that affect the in-flight encryption during self-service operations.
The /opt/dpsapps/agentsvc/Addons/global_config.json file is created automatically. You cannot edit the contents of the file.
Centralized settings take precedence over settings in the /opt/dpsapps/agentsvc/Addons/global_config.json file. Stand-alone self-service operations without PowerProtect Data Manager do not support in-flight encryption.
The status of in-flight encryption during self-service operations depends on the following settings:
- If the encryptionOverTheWire option setting in the /opt/dpsapps/agentsvc/Addons/global_config.json file is TRUE, then in-flight encryption is enabled.
- If the encryptionOverTheWire option setting in the /opt/dpsapps/agentsvc/Addons/global_config.json file is FALSE, then in-flight encryption is disabled.
- If the /opt/dpsapps/agentsvc/Addons/global_config.json file does not exist or is corrupted, then in-flight encryption is disabled. Applicable information is recorded in the operational logs.
