Since you're on OPS I assume this is a larger database. If so then you
probably want RMAN and NetBackup. RMAN requires a "Media Management Layer,"
or 3rd party package to handle the interface to your robotic tape subsystem.
Without media management you could stage the RMAN backups to disk then use
O/S or other backup programs to backup the disk backup to tape... but then
you'd still have to manage your tapes. If you've paid big bucks for OPS then
don't scrimp on the backup solution. Veritas also has NetBackup for Oracle
BLI (Block Level Incremental) Backup Edition so you could backup raw devices
without RMAN, (I think? ...never used the BLI stuff). Did you check out the
Veritas web site? Lot's of "full color glossies" there. Also, check out the
NetBackup pages at Backup Central...

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
