Executes a backup plan file previously created with the RMU Backup command (or created manually by the user).
1 – Description
A backup plan file is created when you execute an RMU Backup command with the Parallel and List_Plan qualifiers. See Backup Database for details on creating a plan file and the format of a plan file.
2 – Format

3 – Parameters
3.1 – plan-file-spec
The file specification for the backup plan file. The default file extension is .plan.
4 – Command Qualifiers
4.1 – Execute
Execute Noexecute The Execute qualifier specifies that Oracle RMU is to execute the plan file. The Noexecute qualifier specifies that Oracle RMU should not execute the plan file, but instead perform a validity check on the contents of the plan file. The validity check determines such things as whether the storage areas names assigned to each worker executor exist. By default, Oracle RMU executes the backup plan file when the RMU Backup Plan command is issued.
4.2 – List Plan
List_Plan=output-file Specifies that Oracle RMU should generate a new plan file and write it to the specified output file. This new plan file is identical to the plan file you specified on the command line (the "original" plan file) with the following exceptions: o Any user-added comments in the original plan file do not appear in the new plan file. o The new plan file is formatted to match the standard format for RMU Backup plan files.
5 – Usage Notes
o To use the RMU Backup Plan command for a database, you must have the RMU$BACKUP privilege in the root file access control list (ACL) for the database or the OpenVMS SYSPRV or BYPASS privilege. o To execute the RMU Backup Plan command, Oracle SQL/Services must be installed on your system.
6 – Examples
Example 1 The following example first creates a plan file by issuing an RMU Backup command with the Parallel and List_Plan qualifiers. Oracle RMU does not execute the plan file because the Noexecute qualifier is specified. The second command issues the RMU Backup Plan command to execute the plan file created with the RMU Backup command. $ ! Create the Backup plan file: $ ! $ RMU/BACKUP/PARALLEL=(EXEC=4, NODE=(NODE1, NODE2)) - _$ /LIST_PLAN=(PARTIAL.PLAN)/NOEXECUTE/INCLUDE=(RDB$SYSTEM, - _$ EMPIDS_LOW, EMPIDS_MID, EMPIDS_OVER, SALARY_HISTORY, EMP_INFO) - _$ /LABEL=(001, 002, 003, 004, 005, 006, 007, 008, 009) - _$ /CHECKSUM_VERIFICATION - _$ MF_PERSONNEL TAPE1:MF_PARTIAL.RBF, TAPE2:, TAPE3, TAPE4 $ ! $ ! Execute the plan file created with the previous command: $ ! $ RMU/BACKUP/PLAN partial.plan
