We have a client that runs an AIX script to stop Oracle and Apache, do an image backup of a file space, an incrmental of everything else, and then restart Oracle and Apache. Everything usually works correctly except that sometimes when Oracle starts up the file system done by the image backup is R/O; i.e. another process prevented TSM from dismounting the file system and mounting it back R/W.
The return code is still 0 and there are no error messages to indicate this is happening. Is there any way to get TSM to report that it couldn't remount the file system? The approach we are going to try is to check the state of the file system before Oracle restarts and if necessary kill any impeding processes and remount the file system. Ideas?
