Setting Up NetBackup Policies for Oracle RMAN Backup
Recovery Manager for Oracle User’s Guide
4.8.1 Configuring the NetBackup Policy for Database Backup with RMAN
For Recovery Manager to perform backup and restoration correctly, you must use the
following guidelines in conjunction with Veritas NetBackup documentation when configuring
a NBU policy:
Backup Attribute Select the Oracle type for the policy.
Backup Selections 1 Enter the location of RMAN backup script (/etc/3par/solutions/
<primary_host>.ora.<oracle_sid>/vcdba_nbu_dbbackup.sh
).
2 Recovery Manager will generate the RMAN backup script at the specified
location when you create the configuration file (see 4.9 Recovery
Manager Configuration Files on page 4.27 below for details).
Backup Schedule 1 Create two schedules, one for full backup and one for incremental backup
(optional). For the incremental backup schedule, you can create either a
differential incremental or cumulative incremental backup schedule.
2 If you wish to perform immediate database backup (initiated from
Recovery Manager), set the backup window to 0.
3 If you also wish to perform automatic database backup (initiated from
NBU), specify the backup window to fit your needs.
Backup Clients Set the backup client to the host name of the backup host, as the backup
process will actually take place on the backup host.
