Use the rmbackup
command to remove a backup request, set of backup requests, or all backup requests that are queued in obtool
. A backup request is held locally in obtool
until you execute the backup command with the --go
option, at which time Oracle Secure Backup makes all backup requests into dataset backup jobs and forwards them to the scheduler.

rmb•ackup { --all/-a | backup-item ... }
Removes all backup requests in the queue.
Specifies an identifier assigned by obtool
to a backup request created with the backup command. The identifier is a small integer number. Execute the lsbackup command with the --long
option to display backup identifiers.
Example 2-123 queries the backup requests awaiting delivery to the scheduler and deletes the backup request with the identifier 2
.
