    • Credential name (for example: server_credential1)

    • Tag (for example: Workload name)

    • Description (for example: This credential is used to access workload name)

  3. Click Next.
  4. Select Oracle.
  5. Provide the authentication details that are needed to connect to the Oracle database.

    See Oracle credential types in the NetBackup Credential management.

  6. Click Next.
