Backup exec can delete(purge) archive logs based on date. Create purge jobs and see to it that directories (junction points are preserved if all files from a directory are deleted). you dont hv to write a windows script to do this. As far as netbackup agent is concerned, it is used alongwith ebu/rman to backup/restore files, so it is needed for oracle hot backups. for colds it is optional. if you want cold w/o agent then you could write a script to shutdown and then use bpbackup to send the oracle files to tape. btw i havnt found a purge job feature in netbackup. -Mandar > -----Original Message----- > From: Yechiel Adar [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Monday, November 18, 2002 3:43 AM > To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L > Subject: Re: Netbackup [#2] > > > Since no one else replied I will give you my experience: > (Backupexec for oracle 816 on NT/2000) > > We are working with it and got backup speed up to 300MB per minute. > > There are some limitations: > > 1) Backupexec does not delete archive logs. > We wrote a script that marked all existing archive logs > before starting the > backup and delete all the marked logs after the backup. > > 2) When restoring to a different machine, Backupexec creates > a folder for > each tablespace and restore the datafiles to this folder.
