Michael is right,

 

The oracle agent comes as part of the netbackup 7 client now.  One word of warning though, running the oracle link (on unix located in /usr/openv/netbackup/bin) requires any databases to be down or the link won’t work.

 

I’m not sure if there is a sample rman script in the same location as the oracle link but the script can be a bit of a bit*h to manipulate to fit with your own environment.  In addition to the rman script, you also need an rman_oratab entry under /var/opt/oracle/ which tells the script the name of the database you’re looking to back up.

 

I can provide a copy of our rman script if you’d like to see what we’re doing.

 

Thanks,

Just installing the Netbackup Client on the Oracle server should be enough, the oracle agent should be a part of the client in 7.0
