Adding Tape Devices to an Administrative Domain
5-10 Oracle Secure Backup Installation and Configuration Guide
Updating is useful only for hosts running Oracle Secure Backup natively. Hosts
accessed in NDMP mode, such as NAS devices, do not maintain any Oracle Secure
Backup state data and therefore it is not necessary to update their state information.
To update a host:
1. From the Host page, select the name of the host to be updated.
2. Click Update.
Removing a Host
This section explains how to remove a host from an Oracle Secure Backup
administrative domain. When you remove a host, Oracle Secure Backup destroys all
information pertinent to that host, including:
■ Configuration data
■ Incremental backup state information
■ Metadata in the backup catalog for this host
■ Each device attachment
■ PNI references
When you remove a host, Oracle Secure Backup contacts that host and directs it to
delete the administrative domain membership information it maintains locally. You
can suppress this communication if the host is no longer accessible.
To remove a host:
1. From the Hosts page, select the name of the host to remove.
Check Suppress communication with host to remove a host that is not connected
to the network.
2. Click Remove.
Oracle Secure Backup prompts you to confirm the removal of the host.
3. Click Yes to remove the host or No to leave the host undisturbed.
Oracle Secure Backup removes the host and returns you to the Host page.
