Veritas NetBackup™ for Oracle Administrator's Guide

Starting the NetBackup Backup, Archive, and Restore interface

To start the NetBackup Backup, Archive, and Restore interface

  1. Use operating system methods to log into the client upon which NetBackup for Oracle is installed.
  2. Make sure that the Oracle database is in the mount or open state.
  3. Start the NetBackup Backup, Archive, and Restore interface on the NetBackup client.
    • From the Windows Start menu, choose All Programs > Veritas NetBackup > Backup, Archive, and Restore.

    • On UNIX, run the following command:

      /usr/openv/java/jbpSA &
  4. Provide the information that the logon dialog box requests.

    On Windows, you do not have to logon as the administrator or as the Oracle administrator.

    On UNIX systems, how you log onto NetBackup depends on how your Oracle authentication is configured:

    • OS authentication for Oracle:

      Log on to NetBackup as an Oracle DBA UNIX account that includes sysdba privileges.

    • Oracle authentication by password file:

      Log on to NetBackup using any UNIX account, including root. You need to provide additional Oracle logon information later in the backup process.

    For the host name, type the name of the client upon which the Oracle database and NetBackup for Oracle reside. Type your user name and password in the other fields. You can log on as a regular user.
