Yechiel,
Thanks for the clerification. I thought that Veritas purchased
BackupExec and renamed it to NetBackup.
When you say that Veritas provided an output option for RMAN are you
referring to the storing of the RMAN output on disk or tape in a format
that Veritas uses for it's tape drives?
He is talking about Veritas NetBackup which is different from BackupExec.
Anyway, Veritas client just provide output option for RMAN.
It is RMAN that perform the backup, so it can be hot or cold. It depends if
you are serving coffee or mineral water.

Netbackup does indeed have to be linked to Oracle. I performed this and
it seemed to go well (no obvious error messages).

Don't know if this is the same problem, but I did run into this and the there had to
be a re-linking and a softlink set for a library if I remember correctly. Just an idea
to check. I know this stuff is a bugger till you get it working.

I don't have any experience with Netbackup, just Legato, but there is a
utility called sbttest that may help in troubleshooting the
problem. Here's an example from something I wrote up a while
back:

/oracle/sbtio.log
