In addition to backing up database files, you can use BR*Tools to back up and restore any files, such as the SAP system files stored on the storage system.
Follow the SAP BR*Tools documentation for the BRBACKUP and BRRESTORE commands. The following additional information applies when you are using SnapManager for SAP:
-
The files must be stored on the storage system.
-
Be sure you have permissions for the files you are backing up. For example, backing up SAP system files (
BRBACKUP backup_mode=sap_dir
) or Oracle system files (BRBACKUP backup_mode=ora_dir
) requires root permission on the host. Use the su root command before running BRBACKUP.
