Installing Plug-In on IBM AIX

Veeam Plug-In for Oracle RMAN is an additional component of Veeam Backup & Replication, and the installation package of the plug-in is included in the Veeam Backup & Replication installation ISO file.

Important

Consider the following:

  • Veeam Plug-In must be installed on the Oracle Database server.
  • The /opt/veeam directory must be writable.
  • The NOEXEC mount option must be disabled for the /var and /tmp directories.

To install Veeam Plug-In for Oracle RMAN on an IBM AIX machine, do the following:

  1. Mount the Veeam Backup & Replication installation disk (VeeamBackup&Replication_13.0.0.4967_20250822.iso).

If you deploy Veeam backup infrastructure for the first time, you can download the Veeam Backup & Replication installation disk image at the Download Veeam Products page.

  1. In the installation disk folder, go to Plugins\Oracle RMAN\AIX\ppc64.
  1. Copy the Veeam Plug-In installation package (VeeamPluginforOracleRMAN-13.0.0.4967-1.aix6.1.ppc.rpm) to the AIX server where the target Oracle database is deployed.
  1. Install the plug-in from package with root privileges. Make sure the root user has privileges to add the PKG file.

rpm -i VeeamPluginforOracleRMAN-13.0.0.4967-1.aix6.1.ppc.rpm
