SAP on Oracle Backup Using Backint

Veeam Plug-in for SAP on Oracle integrates with the BRBACKUP tool and transfers backup files to backup repositories connected to Veeam Backup & Replication. The backup process itself is performed by the BRBACKUP tool. To perform the backup you can use BR*TOOLS or BR*TOOLS Studio.

For details on how the backup is performed, see How Veeam Plug-in for SAP on Oracle Works.

To back up Oracle databases, you can use the interactive wizard of BRTOOLS or you can directly run the backup command using BRBACKUP. When you back up the database using the BRBACKUP tool, you must specify the path to the initialization profile file ($Oracle_HOME/dbs/veeam_initSID.sap) as the argument for the -p (-profile) parameter.

Note

You can make incremental backups only with the rman_util parameter. For details, see the RMAN Backup Strategies section of the SAP Database Guide: Oracle. For instructions on how to perform an incremental backup, see Incremental Backup.

Examples

The following examples are only for demonstration purposes. To see the description of all BRBACKUP parameters, see the Backing Up the Database with BR*Tools for Oracle DBA Guide.
