Question: ? Oracle VM Backup: RMAN & Application Aware Processing

Post by andreas.zeiler »

Hello Forum,
the Oracle DB guys want to test the RMAN plugin.
Up to now, we have a nightly backup of the VM (Win) with enabled Application Aware Processing, deleting logs older than 24 hours and a log backup every 60 minutes.
Now, I installed the Veeam RMAN backup on the Oracle VM.
I guess it's best practice to set the nigthly job to perform a "copy only" of the transaction logs?
Didn't find any hints on that.
Thank you and kind regards

Andreas

Hello,
the "hint" is in the user guide and in the UI.

from user guide
Select Perform copy only if you use another backup tool to perform VM guest level backup, and this tool maintains consistency of the database state.
from user interface: "lets another application user logs"

RMAN is "other application" or "other backup tool" :-)

Best regards,
Hannes
