NetBackup™ Snapshot Manager for Cloud Install and Upgrade Guide

Oracle plug-in configuration requirements

Before you configure the Oracle plug-in, make sure that your environment meets the following requirements:

  • A supported version of Oracle is installed in a supported Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) or Oracle Enterprise Linux (OEL) host environment.

    See Meeting system requirements.

  • Oracle standalone instance is discoverable.

  • Oracle binary and Oracle data must be on separate volumes.

  • Log archiving is enabled.

  • The db_recovery_file_dest_size parameter size is set as per Oracle recommendation.

    For more information, refer to the Oracle Database Backup and Recovery Basics.

  • The databases are running, mounted, and open.

  • NetBackup Snapshot Manager supports discovery and snapshot operations on the databases that are in a backup mode. After taking snapshots, the state of the databases is retained as is; NetBackup Snapshot Manager does not change the status of such databases. However, in-place restore for such databases is not supported.
