Thread: Oracle 8i Backup with BE8.5

  1. Oracle 8i Backup with BE8.5


    Hi all,
    We have Win2K, Oracle 8.1.6 and BE8.5 installed on one server. The Oracle
    agent is installed but I can't find it anywhere. It's not visible in SELECTION
    folder of Backup Job Properties. Where can I find it? I stop all Oracle services
    and backup the whole partition where Oracle and the program that uses database
    are installed, but we'll have to run it 24/7 very soon and I need a HOT backup
    option for Oracle. Any advice and help is very appreciated!

    Come on guys, there have to be someone with the similar configuration!

    Have you run the Oracle Config wizard?

    We used to have a turnkey Call Accounting system that used an Oracle database.

    It's been quite a while since I installed the oracle Agent (would you beleive build
    1223?)
    but I do remember that after installing the Oracle Module, you get another Option
    on the
    BackupExec folder, and have to customize the Agent through that.

    This my problem is. I don't have any additional icons after installing Oracle
    agent.
    Does it matter what Oracle version is installed?

    Don't think you get an Oracle icon until you run the Oracle Config to tell the
    Agent what instance and how to connect.

    But againg, it's been a long time since I did it, and that particular system is no
    longer in use, so I can't check it out anymore

    OK,
    I haven't run the setup program located in Veritas/Agents folder. Once you
    run the setup, configuration window appears and you are finally able to configure
    Oracle Agent!
    Thanks again, now I need to figure out how to configure it properly!
