Oracle Backups setup

[andyboy16]

Hello there,
We are in need of setting up SOBR and Oracle backups. I'm having a hard time finding instructions on to properly setting this up. I'm only finding detailed information on using the Veeam Oracle plugin, but it's my understanding that the plugin can't use SOBR to offload into a S3 bucket so hence image level backups is the only option. Can someone point me to the right direction on prerequisites for setting this up properly for Oracle? I can backup SQL DB's just fine with no issues using SOBR.

Hello,
if you go with application aware processing, then it's irrelevant what's inside the VM from a SOBR perspective.

SQL / Oracle logs from log shipping are only supported in V12 (available soon) for capacity tier.

but it's my understanding that the plugin can't use SOBR to offload into a S3 bucket

if that's what you want to do, there are good news in the user guide

Best regards
Hannes
