Sean, Mostly the 'too busy' category. NBU works fine for us so far, not quite done implementing.
It does more than schedule RMAN, NBU keeps a catalog that tracks which tape a backup is on for a given date, so that you don't have to. Jared "O'Neill, Sean" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] 11/18/2002 02:23 AM Please respond to ORACLE-L To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> cc: Subject: Netbackup [#2] Is no-one out there using NetBackup???. Without wishing to sound rude I'll assume a non-response indicates an affirmative to that OR that you're all too busy to voice an opinion ;) -----Original Message----- Sent: Thursday, November 14, 2002 15:04 To: 'List, OracleDBA [Fatcity]' Howdy Folks, Would appreciate feedback on experiences, positive :) or negative :(, folk have had using Veritas NetBackup product for DB recovery, especially in DR scenarios. There is an Oracle agent but so far all it appears to me to be is a glorious scheduler of your own RMAN scripted jobs!. Feedback on features I may have "missed" with agent would also be appreciated. ------------------------- Seán O' Neill Organon (Ireland) Ltd.
