- 32-bit Oracle running on 64-bit operating systems is not supported.
- Oracle XE on Linux is not supported.
- Oracle Real Application Clusters (RAC) are not supported.
- Database restore to current restore point is supported for restore points created by Veeam backup job, replication job, for VeeamZIP, as well as for imported backup and storage snapshot.
- Restore to selected point in time and to selected transaction is not supported for replicas and backups stored to DR site by backup copy job, as well as for backups stored to cloud repository, as such repositories cannot be used as a destination for archived logs backup in current version of Veeam Backup & Replication.
- Veeam Explorer for Oracle operation in the standalone mode is not supported: it can be installed and launched only with Veeam backup server or with Veeam backup standalone console.
- If a Windows 2003 server is used for mount operations (for example, as a staging system), it requires Microsoft iSCSI Initiator service to be installed; if this service is not found, an error message like the following will be displayed:
"ExplorerManagementService: Failed to wait for OIB mounted. MountID <ID>, Timeout <timeout> (sessionID <ID>). Microsoft sSCSI Initiator service is not installed." - When using a Linux server for mount operations (for example, as a staging system), make sure its kernel version is the same or later than kernel version of the source server. Otherwise, file system compatibility issues may occur.
- Database restore may fail if backed up Oracle server version and target server version have different patch levels.
- If OS authentication on Oracle server is disabled on target, then databases with enabled ASM cannot be restored.
If OS authentication on Oracle server is disabled on staging system, user will be unable to view the list of transaction and perform restore to selected transaction in case of database with enabled ASM.
