5. Conduct EOX database backup

Make the database read only

Run from PuTTY, Windows Terminal, Powershell, Hyperterminal.
You can run this step from SQL Developer too, but you'll need the command-line at the ODA for the data pump export command.

Code Block
ssh oracle@k1.ship.iodp.tamu.edu

. oraenv
ORACLE_SID = [oracle] ? LIMSJR

sql your-name_dba

sql>
alter tablespace labware read only;
exit

[oracle]$

Export the database content

Code Block
cd /backup/export
ls -l
time expdp your-name_dba directory=dmpdir full=y logfile=limsjr_full-###-export.log dumpfile=limsjr_full-###.dmpdp

Make the database read-write again

Code Block
sql your-name_dba
Password:

sql>
alter tablespace labware read write;
exit

[oracle]$

Test the export file

Carefully read the limsjr_full-###-export.log in k1:/backup/export.

  • Are there any errors? No is good. If present, find cause, maybe re-rrun.
  • Review the number of samples for LIMS.SAMPLE, LIMS.TEST, LIMS.RESULT, OPS.RIS_DATA.

Notify everyone that its done

Post the export log file on Slack jrso-developer. Note the size of the export file. We will not zip it, nor send it over the wire.

Email it to

  • MCS - jr_mcs@ship.iodp.tamu.edu
  • IT_OPS - it_ops@iodp.tamu.edu
  • Data Librarian - database@iodp.tamu.edu
  • programmers - programmers@iodp.tamu.edu
  • DBAs - sunil@rajaconsultancy.com, murli@rajaconsultancy.com

Note the size of the file and its location--if we're putting it in the right place, there's no need for the MCS to move it.

Take a copy of the export file

Login into the Oracle account at the ODA using WinSCP. Bring down a copy of the export file and its log to

  • your laptop--or other transfer device; and
  • stage a copy in \\novarupta\vol3\dml\oracle-data\
    for future local reference (or until we have to clean/preen for space.
