Understanding Veeam Oracle Restore Service

The Veeam Oracle Restore Service runtime component is used to support restore activities on a VM guest operating system during the restore session. It checks the valid rights assignments required for database restore, gets information about the databases and performs required file operations including database and transaction logs copy.

After the recovery session is ended, the service is stopped and removed from the guest operating system.

All service activities are logged to the Veeam.Oracle.Service_<timestamp>.log file stored in the Temp folder, which is located in the system directory. If you have enabled extended logging mode, as described in this knowledge base article, the log data will be stored in the Veeam Oracle Explorer log.

The Veeam Oracle Restore Service component requires the Local System account.

Inbound\outbound traffic management between Veeam Explorer for Oracle and the Veeam Oracle Restore Service component is performed via the RPC protocol.
