Instances and databases tab
If you add a new Oracle policy or change an existing Oracle policy, the Instances and databasese tab displays as part of the policy configuration.
Use this tab to select instances, instance groups, RAC databases, or pluggable databases, that you want the Oracle Intelligent Policy to back up.
You cannot mix instances and instance groups in this list. If you select instances for a policy, then you want to select an instance group, the instances you select are deleted from the list.
The Instances and databases tab displays all the instances or instance groups that the Oracle policy is scheduled to back up.
The following options are available.
(OIP option). This panel displays all instances that you have selected to back up for this policy. Select the instances that you want to add to the list. If an instance does not appear in this panel because it is unregistered, you can register that instance and add it to the policy later.
Table: Instances and databases details describes all the instance fields for the instances in this list.
(OIP option). This panel displays all instance groups that you have created. To add new instances to this list, click . All instances that are a part of an instance group at backup time are backed up. To add an instance group click .
To see what instances are backed up if the policy is run for an instance group, select the group from the list, then click
.Options tab and the Instances and Databases tab are removed, because those options must now be set in the RMAN script that the user supplies.
(Non-OIP option). This option is not for use with OIP. If you want to use the client with scripts method of configuring an Oracle policy instead of the new instance method, select . If you select this option, the existing backup selections and instances or instance group are erased. Also, the. This option displays all RAC databases that you have selected to backup for this policy. If no RAC databases are displayed, you must add these databases. On the left select . Then click the tab.
