Examples

Modidying Oracle Processing Settings for Veeam Agent Backup Job (Windows)

This example shows how to modify Oracle processing settings for a Veeam Agent job that backs up Windows computers. The job will run with the following options:

  • Veeam Backup & Replication will trigger the truncation of the logs which are older than 17 hours.
  • Veeam Backup & Replication will back up the archived logs every 25 minutes.
  • Veeam Backup & Replication will keep the backups of the archived logs the same period as the image-level backups.

$oracle = New-VBROracleProcessingOptions -ArchivedLogAction DeleteBySize -ArchiveLogDeletionSize 20

Set-VBROracleProcessingOptions -Options $oracle -ArchivedLogAction DeleteByTime -ArchiveLogDeletionPeriod 17 -ArchiveLogBackupPeriod 25 -ArchiveLogRetainAction WaitForBackupDeletion -EnableArchiveLogBackup

Perform the following steps:

  1. Run the New-VBROracleProcessingOptions cmdlet. Specify the ArchivedLogAction and ArchiveLogDeletionSize parameter values. Save the result to the $oracle variable.
  2. Run the Set-VBROracleProcessingOptions cmdlet. Specify the following settings:
  • Set the $oracle variable as the Options parameter value.
  • Set the DeleteByTime option for the ArchivedLogAction parameter.
  • Specify the ArchiveLogDeletionPeriod parameter value.
  • Specify the ArchiveLogBackupPeriod parameter value.
