Using Backup Exec to backup Oracle Database
Hi,
I've never used Backup Exec and I Iwould like to know if Backup Exec can answer my requests before to decide to use it for our customers.
Context:
We install our application at our customers, the application use an Oracle database
- The size of database can vary from 30GB to 600GB
- The database is install in a Windows server 2003,2008 or 2012
- The objectif is to backup the Oracle Database running on the server
- Only 1 database to backup (for each installation)
- The backup destination will be a shared network directory
- 1 full backup per day
Requirements:
- Backup Exec + Agent should install on the same server
- Backup should run automatically once a day.
Questions:
- In case when the server crashes, does it easy to restore the database in the other server ?
- Does Backup Exec uses RMAN to do the Oracle database backup ?
- Does the backup set can be used by RMAN ?
- Does it common to install Backup Exec on the same server ? what is your recommandations ?
Regards,
Charles.
