NetBackup™ for Oracle Administrator's Guide

Verifying the RMAN script on UNIX

The following procedure describes how to verify that the RMAN script works correctly.

To verify the RMAN script

  1. Use RMAN to make a backup directly to disk. Do not use NetBackup.
  2. Use RMAN with NetBackup to create a backup.
  3. Look for log files under the /usr/openv/netbackup/logs/dbclient directory structure.

    On UNIX all Oracle users are non-root so the logs files are in the /usr/openv/netbackup/logs//dbclient/<users_dir> directory.

    If no log file exists, libobk is not linked into Oracle properly.
