Oracle Ebusiness rapidclone and EVA's

Hi,

Is anyone using Oracle Ebusiness Suite and EVA's. I am interested in how to use the EVA's to simplify the rapidclone procedure.

I have searched the web and EMC and Netapp have white papers on this topic but there is none that I can see from HP on the use of EVA's with rapidclone.

Shalom Ronnie,

HP EVA's have a feature that can be licensed called business copy.

This feature enables you to get a very fast copy of a LUN on the EVA by getting a delta(changed) image. This combined with a previous "snapshot" lets you do backups of oracle databases among other objects very quickly with little or no downtime.

Here is some information on that.

Your search might have run into trouble with the term rapidclone, which I've never heard of. I learned of business copy from HP reps that are selling us an EVA system.
