Supposing your master runs on unix, you should edit /usr/openv/java/auth.conf to add: username ADMIN=ALL JBP=ALL to have same permissions as the root user. There's some short list of various values you can provide for JBP part to limit the user from viewing/doing things. The list is in the

I may be missing something, but I believe you need to use RMAN to do the restore, which assumes an instance or Oracle running on the system you are restoring to. The netbackup for Oracle manual discusses how to restore to another system. It expects the Oracle infrastructure that matches the

On point 1, you should do exactly what Darren has already suggested: burn some extra retention level slots (I encourage you not to change the ones at 9 or below) on multiple copies of the same actual time of retention. Unless you change the default configuration (and please, don't), NetBackup

Erik, Darren has already suggested a way that you can do that: use redundant (length-wise) retention levels and use a different one in each of your policies. That falls down if you need more than 15 slots (or more than one different duration), but you already asserted that you currently have 15

One correction to the Basic Disk Staging as we found out is that there are no settable high water marks for Basic Disk Staging. The hard-coded maximum is 98% of your basic storage disk. It is my guess this is done so that you will want to purchase the Shared Disk Option. You can still

[Veritas-bu] Encryption - LTO-4 or Media Server

HP LTO2 drives can stream from 10-30 MB/sec and IBM drives at 18, 20 and 35 MB/sec. So if he's seeing 6 MB/sec per drive, NONE of these drives are streaming, which adds to the poor performance. When running w/o MSEO and getting 60 MB/sec per drive, that's pretty near double the native transfer

Are you confusing volume pools storage units? I can see hardware encryption tied to a tape drive set much more than a volume pool. That said, if you really want to get rid of volume pools, be careful with data that doesn't live together well. Oracle data oracle archived redo should live on
