Configuring Veeam Plug-In for Oracle RMAN

By default, RMAN sends backups to a native RMAN location on disk (DEFAULT DEVICE TYPE TO DISK). When you configure Veeam Plug-In, the default device type is changed to SBT_TAPE, which gives control over backup media management to Veeam Plug-In. Thus, after you deploy Veeam Plug-In on an Oracle server, you can perform all backup and restore operations in the Oracle RMAN console. Veeam Plug-In compresses database backups and transfers them to a backup repository connected to Veeam Backup & Replication.

To use Veeam Plug-In you must configure the connection between the Oracle server, Veeam Backup & Replication server and backup repositories where backup files will be stored.
