◦ If you install the NetBackup for Oracle client, you must link the Oracle libok.so library
on the database and backup servers to point to the Symantec NetBackup Media Library.
For more information, refer to Symantec’s NetBackup for Oracle documentation.
◦ If you separate the NetBackup master server from the backup server, you must also install
Recovery Manager for Oracle on the NetBackup master server. If you use the Oracle
owner user to perform Recovery Manager for Oracle operations, the same Oracle owner
user and Oracle owner group must exist on the NetBackup master server. No Oracle
binary is required.
•
If you choose Oracle RMAN for the backup method, you must create an Oracle RMAN
Recovery Catalog and configure Oracle TNS Service and Listener to allow connecting to the
Recovery Catalog from both the database and backup servers. The Recovery Catalog can be
created on any host. Recovery Manager for Oracle recommends that the Recovery Catalog
is created on the backup server. Refer to Oracle documentation for instructions on how to
create a Recovery Catalog, as well as how to configure Oracle TNS Service and Listener.
