I stopped using the TSM Oracle Agent...very complicated...and am just doing full exports to a file server. TSM then backs up the export.
Mgmt. says, "Hey, you're not getting the full benefit of a backup with redo logs, etc."
Please comment. Should I be using RMAN instead of export?
TIA

Orin,
I would recommend that you go back to using the TSM Oracle agent(aka ITSM for Database or as some of the old timers still call it TDP's) as soon as you can. The Oracle TDP will provide you the most robust protection. Although it might seem complicated at first once it is setup and configured correctly it is quite simple to use. If you need any assistance in getting it setup please contact me and I will see what I can do to help.
BTW, I believe we met last year at your site to discuss TSM.
Good Luck and please don't hesitate to get a hold of me.
