Restore to Another Server

In this article

    If you want to restore Oracle databases from a Veeam backup repository to another server, you must temporarily change the Veeam Plug-in configuration file:

    1. On the Oracle server, go to the \Veeam\VeeamPluginforOracleRMAN folder (/opt/veeam/VeeamPluginforOracleRMAN/ for Linux OS).
    1. Open the veeam_config.xml file with a text editor.
    2. Change the <PluginParameters /> line as follows:
    • For standalone Oracle Server:

    <PluginParameters customServerName="original_server_hostname" />

    • For Oracle RAC:

    <PluginParameters customServerName="original_cluster_scan_name" />

    1. Follow the instructions in the Restoring a Database on a New Host section of Oracle's Database Backup and Recovery User's Guide.

    Restore to Another Server Important!

    • Veeam Plug-in for Oracle RMAN must be installed and configured on the target server.
    • Before you perform any other backup or restore job, revert back the changes in the veeam_config.xml file. The default configuration is: <PluginParameters />
