Restore from Backup Copy

You can restore Oracle databases from backups and backup copies. To restore from backup copies, you must enable the restore from backup copy option in the Veeam Plug-in wizard.

Important

If the restore from backup copy option is enabled, you cannot back up databases using Veeam Plug-in, and you cannot restore from backups created by primary Veeam Plug-in backup jobs. You can restore only from backup copy files until you disable the restore from backup copy option.

For instruction on how to enable/disable the restore from backup copy option, see the following guides:
