Remote Mirroring of an Oracle Database Using Data Replicator Software

Scripts Verification Checklist

Each time you run the

sun_erm.ksh

script to remotely mirror an Oracle database, one

log file and one trace file generate in the

./LSI_ERM/logs

directory. Search these two

files for error and warning messages.

Troubleshooting

The scripts provide two types of log files:

Standard log file This log file lists any errors that occurred in the processing of the
scripts. The log file usually points to where the problem has occurred.

.trace

file This log file gives details on the exact command with the values of the

variables used within the command line. This log file also shows the results from the
command line.

To resolve an issue, consult with these two log files and determine if the problem is
apparent. If the problem is not apparent, try to run the exact command from the

.trace

file and then compare the results. The most common error is incorrect values within the

erm.conf

file.

If the volume copies have failed or have not been established, you may manually establish
the copies and rerun the

erm

script.

If the problem still cannot be determined, pack all the files from the

LSI_ERM
