SPARC and Oracle DB Best practices

[DaveDSI]

Hi Veeam Forum,

We are trying to map out the best practices for a Veeam backup of Oracle Solaris SPARC and Oracle DB to Veeam and if/how others have achieved this.

Currently we quite a few Oracle Solaris SPARC Servers that have Oracle DB installed on Solaris Branded Zones, as Veeam can't backup up Oracle DB's directly yet what has worked for others on this type of setup.

Also from backing up the Solaris SPARC Servers themselves, we currently do UAR backups as these provide the correct restore functions needed, but is there an option for Veeam to replicate what a UAR backup would be, or like with Oracle DB backups would we need to land the UAR backups to a landing zone and then Veeam backsup from there.

Thanks
