During installation, you have the option of installing support for Oracle Recovery Manager (RMAN), an Oracle utility for backing up, restoring, and recovering Oracle databases. With support for Recovery Manager, you can submit backup and restore jobs to CA ARCserve Backup by connecting to RMAN at the command line, or through the Oracle Backup Manager user interface. In addition, you can write and execute your own Recovery Manager scripts.
If you choose to install CA ARCserve Backup support for Recovery Manager, you must run the Oracle agent configuration before you use Recovery Manager.
Note: For information on how to run this utility, see the section Configure the Agent for Oracle in the chapter "Installing the Option".
After you install the CA ARCserve Backup Enterprise Option for SAP R/3 for Oracle, each time you initiate a backup or restore with Recovery Manager, the option transfers data between CA ARCserve Backup, the Oracle database, and the storage media.
If you back up data using the Recovery Manager interface, you can only restore that data using the Recovery Manager interface. For information on how the Option works with the Agent for Oracle in RMAN mode, see Agent for Oracle guide.
Similarly, if you back up data using CA ARCserve Backup, you can only restore that data using CA ARCserve Backup. For information on how the Option works with the Agent for Oracle in File-based mode, see Agent for Oracle guide.
