Hi there, I have Oracle 11g running on FC7. I have also installed the ralus backup agent on said server so that it can communicate with my backup server, which is running server 2008 and the latest veritas. I want to be able to backup oracle via Veritas. When I tried to do so, I was told to run 'vxmon.exe' in order to configure the oracle backuperator(Backup exec oracle agent configuration). However, when I try to connect to the Oracle server, I keep getting an 'Invalid Oracle SID Name'

Any ideas?

Thanks!
