-- This procedure copies a backup piece that was originally written to an
-- operating system file, onto sequential media. This requires allocating
-- a sequential device first. Of course, this could copy to another operating
-- system file if the NULL device is allocated.
--
-- A record is made in the controlfile as if the piece was just created and
-- written to this output file. It can be queried from V$BACKUP_PIECE using
-- the record ID returned. Note that no new entries are made in V$BACKUP_SET,
-- V$BACKUP_DATAFILE, V$BACKUP_REDOLOG, or V$BACKUP_CORRUPTION.
--
-- It is acceptable to copy a backup piece when a backup controlfile has been
-- mounted. However, note that the files named in the control
-- file may no longer exist.
--
-- Input parameters:
-- bpname
-- Operating system file name of the existing backup piece. This will be
-- read and copied to sequential media.
-- fname
-- Filename of the backup piece to be created. This will be translated
-- into a file handle after the piece is created.
-- tag
-- The tag stored in the file header of the copied and backed up files,
-- and also in the controlfile records describing those files.
-- params
-- This string is simply passed to the sequential file create OSD. It is
-- completely port and device specific.
-- Output parameters:
-- handle
-- The handle for the backup piece that was created. This is a permanent
-- name that can be used to read this sequential file for restore. It
-- can only be used with the same device type that was allocated at
-- this call.
-- comment
-- The comment for the backup piece. This is any string that the OSD
-- decided was useful. It will be a null string for operating system
-- files. Note that this comment is not the same as the comment where the
-- original backup piece was created.
-- media
-- The media handle returned by the operating system. This is the name
-- of media where the file was created. It is not needed for retrieving
-- the backup piece. For some devices this information will not be
-- provided.
-- concur
-- TRUE if the device type used to create this piece
-- supports multiple processes concurrently accessing the same media.
-- If FALSE, it is best to only have one process at a time
-- doing a restore of backup pieces with the same media handle.
-- recid
-- This is the ID of the record in the controlfile where the
-- information about this backup piece was recorded. It can be used as
-- the primary key to query V$BACKUP_PIECE.
-- stamp
-- This is a number that can be used to verify that the row in
-- V$BACKUP_PIECE is really for this backup piece. The stamp combined
-- with recid makes a key that is unique for this backup piece for all
-- time.
-- media_pool
-- a number from 0-255 whose meaning is defined by rman or by 3rd-party
-- media management software.
-- Exceptions:
-- NO-INPUT-FILENAME (ora-19605)
-- src_name must be assigned a non-NULL string in copyControlFile.
-- NO-OUTPUT-FILENAME (ora-19574)
-- dest_name must be assigned a non-NULL string in copyControlFile.
-- NAME-TOO-LONG (ora-19704)
-- The specified file name is longer than the port-specific
-- maximum file name length.
-- TAG-TOO-LONG (ora-19705)
-- The tag is longer than the port-specific maximum.
-- DEVICE-PARM-TOO-LONG (ora-19702)
-- The device parameter is longer than the port-specific maximum.
-- CANT-GET-INSTANCE-STATE-ENQUEUE (ora-1155)
-- The database is in the process of being opened, closed, mounted,
-- or dismounted.
-- DATABASE-NOT-MOUNTED (ora-1507)
-- The database is not mounted.
-- FILE-IN-USE (ora-19584)
-- The specified output file is already in use by the database as a
-- datafile or online redo log.
-- DEVICE-NOT-ALLOCATED (ora-19569)
-- This session does not have a device allocated.
-- CANT-IDENTIFY-FILE (ora-19505)
-- The file can not be opened.
-- END-OF-VOLUME (ora-19630)
-- end-of-volume was encountered while copying the backup piece.
-- CORRUPT_BLOCK (ora-19599)
-- A corrupt block was encountered. Corrupt blocks are not tolerated
-- in backup pieces.
-- NOT-A-BACKUP-PIECE (ora-19608)
-- The input file is not recognizable as a backup piece.
-- CORRUPT-DIRECTORY (ora-19610)
-- The backup piece directory is corrupt.
-- IO-ERROR
-- An error occured attempting to read the input file.
-- CREATE-ERROR
-- An error was reported by the OSD to create the sequential file.
-- WRITE-ERROR
-- An error was reported by the sequential write OSD.
