This article describes how to perform the V2P operation conversion of a dSource or a virtual pluggable database (vPDB) into a physical database stored on Oracle Automatic Storage Management (ASM) disk groups. No intermediate storage is needed; the database files are moved directly from Delphix into the ASM diskgroup(s).

To perform the V2P operation on Oracle dSource with a physical Oracle ASM in DCT, follow these steps:

  1. Log in to the DCT instance.

  2. Navigate to Data>dSources and select any Oracle dSource and click View.

  3. Click on the Actions menu and select the Virtual to Physical option.

  4. On the Virtual to Physical > Physical Database page, select the following options:

    • Method Selection: Select the Export to New Physical Database option to create new target database on the Target dSource.

    • File Selection: Select the ASM option to export physical database to a Oracle ASM file system.

    • Click Next.

  5. On the Data State Selection page, select a Provision Point option and click Next.

  6. On the Target Configuration page, enter the following configuration details:

    • Environment: Name of the environment.
    • User: User name for the environment.

    • Installation Home: The Oracle Installation path for your database.

    • Container Database: The existing CDB for your environment.

    • Pluggable Database Name: Enter the name of the PDB.

    • Mount Base: Enter the mount base path.

    • RMAN Channel Size: Enter the number of RMAN channel size. For example, enter 1.

    • RMAN Section Size: Enter the RMAN Section Size. For example, enter 2.

    • Configure V2P Parameters: Select this check box to enter the V2P parameters.

    • Select the TDE Keystore Config Type to choose the following options:

      • Unset

      • File

      • HSM

      • OKV

      • OCI Vault

      Additional parameters are visible based on the selection of the TDE Keystore config Type. For more information, read the Provision Oracle VDBs in DCT page.

    • Click Next.

  7. On the V2P Configure Parameters page, click the + icon to add the Parameter Name and Value and click Next.
