Integrated Backup
This chapter describes the Teamcenter Engineering integrated backup and recovery feature.
The integrated backup and recovery feature uses third-party software to enhance Teamcenter Engineering Oracle backup capabilities and allows Teamcenter Engineering to operate continually. This functionality focuses on the area of backing up metadata and math data, and recovering that data in different restoration scenarios. To accomplish this, the integrated backup feature places Teamcenter Engineering in different modes, as illustrated in figure 1-1.
Figure 1-1. Teamcenter Engineering Third-Party Backup Software Integration The following steps describe the process flow shown in figure 1-1. 1. The third-party backup software requests that Teamcenter Engineering freeze all operations on Teamcenter Engineering file system volumes.

2. Teamcenter Engineering sends a cautionary message to the user to save all files. •
Teamcenter Engineering is placed in read-only mode once there are no open Teamcenter Engineering files in the system.
•
Optionally, Teamcenter Engineering generates SingleFileRecovery instances in the database.
3. Teamcenter Engineering returns okay. 4. The third-party backup software is now ready to take a snapshot of the file system and the Oracle database. 5. The backup of the Oracle database starts in hot mode allowing Teamcenter Engineering to be available in 24-hour/7-day mode. The backup starts for file system volumes on the operating system. Optionally, during the backup, the third-party software can request that Teamcenter Engineering operate in blobby volume mode. 6. The third-party backup software completes the backup operation. 7. The third-party backup software requests that Teamcenter Engineering resume normal mode. 8. Teamcenter Engineering resumes normal mode.
Operation Modes The integrated backup system operates in four modes: Caution Message, Read-Only, Blobby Volume, and Normal.
1-2
Mode
Description
Caution Message Mode
Cautions users to save their work to avoid any loss of data during backup. This message is sent before the Teamcenter Engineering volume is set to read-only state for backup.
Read-Only Mode
Places Teamcenter Engineering into read-only state. This state holds writing files to the volume during backup.
Blobby Volume Mode
Places Teamcenter Engineering in blobby (temp) volume mode. Teamcenter Engineering can be switched into this mode after the third-party backup software takes a snapshot of the data. Thus, allowing continuous Teamcenter Engineering availability.
Normal Mode
Places Teamcenter Engineering back in normal mode from caution, read-only, or blobby volume mode.

Single File Recovery (SFR)
This chapter describes Teamcenter Engineering single file recovery.
Single file recovery (SFR) allows users to search for and restore purged versions of files from the backup medium. This mechanism also helps restore the files from the backup, if accidentally deleted by a user. The scope of SFR is limited to restoring math data from backup medium. With the current functionality in Teamcenter Engineering, files revised beyond the set revision limit (default is 3) in are eclipsed. These orphaned files are stored in the volume, are typically purged at some point, and are no longer referenced by the dataset once the revision limit is reached. However, the typical day-to-day backup preserves the revision limit (default is 3) versions of the file in the Teamcenter Engineering volume backups. These files may not be referenced in Teamcenter Engineering but are stored on backup media. Because the file is no longer associated in Teamcenter Engineering, a tedious restoration effort must be undertaken to bring the file back into Teamcenter Engineering. SFR uses Teamcenter Engineering to retrieve information from the third-party backup application through the user-level search and restore capability. SFR contains several classes and tables. These tables are installed as a part of the Teamcenter Engineering integrated backup application. SFR also derives attributes from various Teamcenter Engineering classes. These attribute values are copied and therefore do not impact in the base classes from where they were derived.

Caution Message Mode
Teamcenter Engineering file system will enter Read Only Mode in a few minutes for backup. Please save all your files.
Read-Only Mode
Teamcenter Engineering file system is now available in Read Only Mode.
Normal Mode
Teamcenter Engineering file system is now available in Normal Mode.
BlobbyVolume Mode
Teamcenter Engineering file system is now available in Blobyvolume Mode.
Single File Recovery The SingleFileRecovery query, located in the My Navigator search pane, is used to locate single files for recovery. Once you have run the query, the system displays the following error message: A Reference of File in the Database OR a Copy of file from Backup will be recovered in the Newstuff folder.

Recovery Management Backup Recommendation
This chapter describes recommendations for recovery backup management.
UGS recommends the Oracle Recovery Manager (RMAN) product be used with the Teamcenter Engineering integrated backup application. Recovery Manager (RMAN) is an Oracle utility that can back up, restore, and recover database files. This is a feature of the Oracle database server and does not require separate installation. Recovery Manager uses database server sessions to perform backup and recovery operations. It stores metadata about its operations in the control file of the target database, and optionally, in a recovery catalog schema in an Oracle database. You can invoke RMAN as a command line executable from the operating system prompt or use some RMAN features through the Enterprise Manager interface. The features of Recovery Manager are available using the Oracle Backup Manager interface. This is a command line interface, similar to SQL*DBA. It provides a powerful operating-system- independent scripting language and works in interactive or batch mode. The RMAN environment consists of the utilities and databases that play roles in a backup and recovery strategy. A typical RMAN setup utilizes the following components: •
RMAN executable
•
Target database
•
Recovery catalog database
•
Media management software
Of these components, only the RMAN executable and target database are required. RMAN automatically stores its metadata in the target database control file, so the recovery catalog database is optional. UGS recommends maintaining a recovery catalog. If you create a catalog on a separate machine and the production machine fails completely, you have all the restore and recovery information you need in the catalog.

Recovery Management Backup Recommendation
Benefits Table 3-1 lists a comparison between RMAN and user-managed methods. Table 3-1. Comparison Chart Recovery Manager
User-Managed Method
Uses a media management API so that RMAN works seamlessly with third-party media management software. More than 20 vendors support the API.
Does not have support of a published API.
When backing up online files, RMAN rereads fractured data blocks to get a consistent read. You do not need to place online tablespaces in backup mode when performing backups.
Requires placing online tablespaces in backup mode before backing them up and then taking the tablespaces out of this mode after the backup is complete. Serious database performance and manageability problems can occur if you neglect to take tablespaces out of backup mode after an online backup is complete.
Performs incremental backups, which Backs up all blocks, not just the changed back up only those data blocks that blocks. Does not allow you to recover a changed after a previous backup. You can NOARCHIVELOG database. recover the database using incremental backups, which means that you can recover a NOARCHIVELOG database. However, you can only take incremental backups of a NOARCHIVELOG database after a consistent shutdown.
3-2
Computes checksums for each block during a backup and checks for corrupt blocks when backing up or restoring. Many of the integrity checks that are normally performed when executing SQL are also performed when backing up or restoring.
Does not provide error checking.
Omits never-used blocks from datafile backups so that only data blocks that have been written to are included in a backup.
Includes all data blocks, regardless of whether they contain data.
Stores RMAN scripts in the recovery catalog.
Requires storage and maintenance of operating system-based scripts.
Allows you to easily create a duplicate of the production database for testing purposes or easily create or back up a standby database.
Requires you to follow a complicated procedure when creating a test or standby database.
Performs checks to determine whether backups on disk or in the media catalog are still available.
Requires you to locate and test backups manually.

Recovery Manager
User-Managed Method
Performs automatic parallelization of backup and restore operations.
Requires you to parallelize manually by determining which files you need to back up and then issuing operating system commands in parallel.
Tests whether files can be backed up or restored without actually performing the backup or restore.
Requires you to actually restore backup files before you can perform a trial recovery of the backups.
Performs archived log failover automatically. If RMAN discovers a corrupt or missing log during a backup, it considers all logs and log copies listed in the repository as alternative candidates for the backup.
Cannot failover to an alternative archived log if the backup encounters a problem.
Uses the repository to report on crucial information, including:
Does not include any reporting functionality.
•
Database schema at a specified time.
•
Files requiring backup.
•
Files that have not been backed up in a specified number of days.
•
Backups that can be deleted because they are redundant or cannot be used for recovery.
•
Current RMAN persistent settings

Installing and Using the Cold Backup and Restore Utility
Prerequisites and Settings Checklist Use the following checklist before installing the Cold Backup and Restore Utility. UGS recommends that you perform the steps in the order given below: 1. Verify hardware and software requirements for MS SQL Server. 2. Check if the MS SQL Server Client along with Enterprise Manager are installed on the host system from which the utility is to be executed. 3. The user should be an authorized Teamcenter Engineering DBA user (for example, user ID infodba) and must have the required privileges to perform backup and restore operations on MS SQL Server and Teamcenter Engineering volumes. 4. The user must use the advanced Teamcenter File Services (TCFS) mode to perform cold backup of Teamcenter Engineering volumes. The advanced mode signifies that TCFS owns the files and hence, with consistent ownership, the backup can be created without any permission issues. 5. The user must have the user name and password details, along with Teamcenter Engineering data directory path information, to retrieve the MS SQL Server, database, and Teamcenter Engineering volumes location information. 6. The messenger service for the entire domain should be started to be able to send messages to users before and after the backup and restore process using the Net Send facility of Windows. 7. To perform backup or restore tasks for volumes that are on UNIX machines, a third-party software (such as NSF, SFU, or Samba) is required to allow mounting of the UNIX disks to Windows. This third-party software should be installed on the machine on which the utility is to be executed.
Preinstallation Tasks Before installing the utility, the following tasks must be performed in the given order: 1. Determine the location where the backup is to be maintained. 2. Prepare a schedule plan for backup operation frequency. The plan should take the following details into consideration: •
Location Determine the location where the backup is to be maintained.
•
Timing Determine the time when the backup operation is to be performed. As a best practice, perform the backup operation during noncritical time, when there are minimum number of users connected to the database.
•
Frequency Determine how often the backup must be performed.

An option to view the log file is also provided in the message. Click Yes to view the log file. As a best practice, click Yes to check the log file to ensure whether the backup process has been successful or it has encountered errors. 21. The backup of volumes is stored in a new folder at the destination specified in the main dialog window. The naming convention followed for this folder is: backup_volumes_ddmmyy_hhmmss dd is day, mm is month, yy is year, hh is hour, mm is minutes, and ss is seconds. 22. If the backup operation is aborted due to the selected Abort Backup on Errors option or any critical errors during the backup process, the entire backup set in the destination folder is deleted. 23. If the database backup is successful whether the Abort Backup on Errors option or Continue Backup on Errors is selected, a file named volumes-path.txt is created at the backup set (the new folder created) at the destination. This file contains the volumes path information from where the volumes are backed up. This information is necessary when restoring the database volumes.
Restore (Source for Restore) Perform the the following steps to restore data: 1. Select Source for Restore to perform the restore operation. The Source for Backup and other options relevant to the backup procedure such as Continue Backup on Errors, Abort Backup on Errors, Backup Mode are disabled. 2. The Source for Restore is the backup set of Teamcenter Engineering volumes, which is created during the backup process. This is usually a folder named in the backup_volumes_mmddyy_hhmmss structure, where dd is day, mm is month, yy is year, hh is hour, mm is minutes, and ss is seconds. 3. A file called volumes-path.txt is created during the backup process. It contains the volumes path information from where the volumes are backed up, which is essential for restoring the data. If this is not located at the backup set location, a message is displayed (figure 4-20).

If the utility encounters any errors during the database restore, it aborts and does not proceed further. The errors are written to the log file restore.log. 7. Once the restore process is successful, a message is displayed (figure 4-21). Click Yes to view the log file.
Figure 4-21. Restore Completed Message As a best practice, click Yes to check the log file to ensure that the restore process is successful.
Verifying Backup and Restore Perform the following steps to verify backup and restore: 1. Check for database backup. Browse to the destination location where the backup device and file path are provided during the database backup. The backup file name specified during the backup with the .bak extension should be present at the location. The modified date should be the date on which the backup is performed. This is an indication that the backup operation has been performed successfully. 2. Check for volumes backup. Browse to the destination path specified in the Volumes Information panel of the main dialog window (see figure 4-9). A new folder with the naming convention backup_mmddyy_hhmmss is created. This contains all the volumes that are backed up. Also, refer to the log file to check for any errors encountered.
Backup and Restore Log Files The Cold Backup and Restore Utility generates two log files, backup.log and restore.log, as it proceeds with the backup and restore process. These log files are stored under the Logs folder at the location where the utility is installed. If an error occurs, follow the instructions in the displayed error messages closely. Check the backup and restore log file for the error details and rectify them manually.

Using the Teamcenter Hot Backup and Recovery Utility
Alternate Hot Backup and Recovery Procedure If you do not use third-party storage management systems, UGS recommends that you use the SQL Servers Enterprise Manager or T-SQL backup/restore scripts to perform the hot backup and recovery operations on the database. MS SQL Server 2000 supports online (hot) backups from Enterprise Manager that can back up, restore, and recover database files. This is a feature of the MS SQL 2000 Database Server and does not require separate installation.
Backing Up and Restoring Database Files This section describes backing up and restoring database files. Back up database files: 1. Open the SQL Enterprise Manager by clicking Start→All Programs→Microsoft SQL Server→Enterprise Manager. 2. Expand the SQL Server Group to view all existing servers. 3. Expand the required SQL Server. 4. Expand Databases to list the available databases. 5. Right-click the required database and select All Tasks→Backup Database…/Restore Database…. 6. Click Backup Database to start the database backup process. The SQL Server Backup dialog window is displayed. 7. On the General tabbed page, choose a type of backup from the Backup options. After you create a complete database backup (using the Database-complete option), you must also create a Transaction log backup. To do this, open the SQL Server Backup dialog window and select the Transaction log backup option. 8. Select the destination (tape or disk) for the backup. A backup device is a location that stores backup files. A backup file can hold multiple backups. If this is the first backup of your database, create a backup device by performing the following steps: a. Click Add. The Backup Destination dialog window appears. b.
Enter a name for the backup in the Name field. The database name with a .bak extension is used as the default name for the backup.
c.
Click File Name (backup device).
d. Define the appropriate path for the file.

e.
Click OK. The SQL Server Backup dialog window is displayed again.
f.
Select the device or file you created from the Destination list.
9. Select the appropriate overwrite option for your backup. You can use this option to add multiple backups to file or device or to overwrite previous backups with the most current backup. Selecting the Schedule box automates the database backup process. UGS does not recommend using this option, because it only backs up the database. It does not automate the backup of volumes. 10. Click OK. The SQL Server Backup dialog window is displayed. 11. Click the Options tab. 12. Select the options that are appropriate for your organization. 13. Click OK. A message displays indicating successful completion of the backup operation. Restore a database: 1. Open the SQL Enterprise Manager by clicking Start→All Programs→Microsoft SQL Server→Enterprise Manager. 2. Expand the SQL Server Group to view all servers. 3. Expand the required SQL Server. 4. Expand Databases to list the available databases. 5. Right-click the required database and select All Tasks→Backup Database…/Restore Database…. 6. Click Restore Database to start the database restoration process. The Restore Database dialog window is displayed. 7. Select the type of restore operation to be performed. The type of restore operation depends on the type of backup operation that was performed. 8. Click Database in the Restore area to perform a full database restoration. This is the first step in restoring the database. 9. Perform the following steps: a. Click the Options tab in the Restore Database dialog window.

d. Click OK. A message appears indicating the successful completion of the restore operation. 10. To perform a differential restoration of the database, perform the following steps: a. Perform a full database restoration. b.
Restore the most recent differential backup.
c.
Restore all transaction logs that apply (in the appropriate order).
d. Select full backup for the differential backup. e.
Click OK. A message appears indicating the successful completion of the restore operation.
11. To perform a transaction-log restore of the database, follow these steps: a. Perform a full database restoration. b.
Restore the most recent differential backup.
c.
Restore all transaction logs that apply (in the appropriate order).
d. Select the Point In Time option in the Parameters area of the Restore database dialog window. e.
Click OK. A message appears indicating the successful completion of the restore operation.
Backing Up and Restoring Teamcenter Volumes Copy the volumes from the source location to the destination device/location. After completing the backup, return Teamcenter to normal mode.
Virtual Device Interface (VDI) Microsoft’s Virtual Device Interface (VDI) is integral to all third-party SQL Server backup solutions, whether hardware or software. Introduced in SQL Server 7.0, the VDI provides third-party vendors access to a collection of high-performance backup-and-restore mechanisms. By writing to the VDI, developers can substitute a virtual device for a server’s local disk file or tape. VDIs enable third-party software to control SQL Server backup and restore, which allows vendors to create a seamless interface between their own high-performance technologies and the SQL Server. Third-party applications can use the VDI interface to perform snapshot as well as standard SQL Server backup and restore. However, VDI under the SQL Server 7.0 does not permit true third-party integration. It supports only standard SQL Server backup and restore. SQL Server 2000, through its support for snapshot backups, treats the third-party solutions as true backups.

In this case, the backup of volumes and databases must be performed in the traditional manner. The ability to back up and restore data in a reliable and timely manner requires the SQL Server 2000 VDI (Virtual Backup Device API). Most third-party independent software vendors use the VDI application programming interface to integrate SQL Server into their products. The advantages and disadvantages of VDI are as follows: Advantages •
This API is engineered to provide maximum reliability and performance to support the full range of SQL Server backup and restore functionality.
•
This API is used by most third-party vendors to perform backup/recovery operations. The VDI provides parallel high-speed data transfer between the SQL Server and the snapshot provider with minimal overhead.
Disadvantages
5-12
•
Only utilities that interact with the SQL Server through the VDI can issue the backup and restore command snapshot option. Users cannot issue the snapshot option directly.
•
SQL Server supports only the backups and restorations saved in the snapshot format. It does not support differential and transaction-log backups saved as snapshots.
•
Backup/restore of the SQL Server database is possible using the SQL Server Enterprise Manager or VDI. However, an integrated solution to back up both the SQL database and volumes is not possible using these approaches. Backup/recovery of Teamcenter volumes must be performed using the traditional copy and paste method.
•
VDI combined with the third-party integrations can effectively back up and restore Teamcenter metadata and math data that require minimal downtime and require SQL Server 2000 to be in hot backup mode. This combination enables you to achieve greater flexibility by ensuring 24 X 7 availability.
