dmk_backup_report.{ksh|ps1}

This chapter presents the Backup Report wrapper script dmk_backup_report{ksh|ps1}.

All scripts have a detailed synopsis please check the option “-h” or “--help”.

The execution of dmk_backup_report.{ksh|ps1} requires a configuration file, which contains the needed parameters detailed later in this chapter. A template of the configuration file, named report.cfg, is stored in the subfolders template from DMK_DBBACKUP environment.

⚠️Using dmk_backup_report script is only possible when a catalog is implemented and in use.

Example:

  • To launch the backup report from linux platform:

oracle@vmdmkdbboradg1:/home/oracle/ [rdbms12201] dmk_backup_report.ksh -c
/u01/app/oracle/local/dmk_dbbackup/templates/report.cfg
2020-07-27_11-05-43::dmk_backup_report.pl::MainProgram ::INFO ==>

  • To launch the backup report from windows platform using powershell :

Administrator@WIN-KLICHMDL0LN:C:\\\\ [rdbms122] dmk_backup_report.ps1 -c
C:\\app\\oracle\\local\\dmk_dbbackup\\templates\\report.cfg
2020-07-27_11-10-52::dmk_backup_report.pl::MainProgram ::INFO ==>
Configfile : C:\\app\\oracle\\local\\dmk_dbbackup\\templates\\report.cfg
2020-07-27_11-10-53::dmk_backup_report.pl::MainProgram ::INFO ==> sqlplus
log file : C:\\app\\oracle\\local\\dmk/log/2020-07-27_11-10-
52_dmk_backup_report.log
2020-07-27_11-10-53::dmk_backup_report.pl::MainProgram ::INFO ==> Catalog
connection : CAT/manager@DBCAT18C
2020-07-27_11-10-54::dmk_backup_report.pl::MainProgram ::INFO ==> HTML File
to be sent by email : C:\\app\\oracle\\local\\dmk/log/2020-07-27_11-10-
52_dmk_backup_report.html
2020-07-27_11:10:56::dmk_backup_report.ps1::MainProgram::INFO ==> CleanExit
[0] code

Please note that :

powershell.exe –noprofile \\
–command "dmk_dtpump.ps1 –s ${ORACLE_SID} –-export"
The PowerShell profile is similar to the Unix/Linux user profile (~/.profile, ~/.bash_profile). The “-noprofile” option bypass the sourcing of the user profile.

The report will be generated as a HTML file which will be sent by email. The report will display for each database stored in the catalog the gap for the last successful full backup, inc0 backup, inc1 backup and archive log backup. If the gap is greater than the expected threshold provided in the configuration file, the result will be displayed in red color. Otherwise the backup will be considered as ok and displayed in green color.
