Ravindra,

Veritas distributes RMan scripts with NetBackup that work
nicely.  We've been using the combo for a while on Oracle
8.1.6 under Windows 2000.  IMHO RMan is wonderful in that it
does hot backups with minimal impact on database
performance - at least less redo impact than putting
tablespaces in hot backup mode, which must be done for
"traditional" scripted hot backups.

With Oracle Enterprise Edition RMan can also do incremental
backups, which is very nice.  A full Level 0 hot backup of
our production db takes almost 14 hours, while a Level 1
incremental backup takes only about 2 hours.

RMan also handles backing up, then deleting the archived
redo logs very nicely.

I'd recommend using RMan, with or without NetBackup.

We are planning to use Veritas Netbackup to backup our
Oracle Database(OPS).
I am not sure whether we need to use the combination of
Netbackup and RMAN
to take the backup/recovery or just Netbackup is sufficient
to take the
backup.

Can anyone tell how this combination works.

Should I have Both or just Netbackup is sufficient for the
Oracle backup and
receovery.

thanks

Ravindra
