Backup Oracle dNFS

Post by thomas11 »

Hi,

is it possible to backup a Linux VM including Oracle databases where Oracle is configured with dNFS to read/write the database files?
Guess the tricky part is that the OS NFS client is not used, just Oracle itself establishes the connection.


Thanks!

Hi and welcome to the community,

What is really a tricky part here is that dNFS is on another machine, apparently. That is, vSphere does not see it as a virtual disk, hence Veeam won't back it up.

Thanks!

You can backup the oracle database with RMAN and use our RMAN Plugin (Veeam Plug-in for Oracle RMAN) to forward the backups to a Veeam repositories.

Plugin is available at Enterprise Plus and do not need additional license if the VM (Socket or Instance) or Server is already licensed
