NetBackup™ for Oracle Administrator's Guide

Adding an instance to an instance group

You can add an instance to an instance group by using the NetBackup Administration Console or by running the nboraadm command.

See the nboraadm description in the NetBackup Commands Reference Guide.

Note that you may have already registered an instance individually. When you add it to an instance group, its credentials are automatically changed to the group credentials.

To add an instance to an instance group

  1. In the NetBackup Administration Console, in the left pane, expand NetBackup Management > Applications > Oracle.
  2. Click All Instances to display all instances in the right pane.
  3. Select the instance that you want to be a member of an instance group. You can select multiple instances from the list.
  4. On the Actions menu, select Register. The Register Instance dialog appears. For example:
  5. On the Instance Group pulldown menu, select the desired instance group (InstanceGroup1 in the example).
  6. Click OK. A Validation Report dialog box appears that describes the validation successes and failures.
