Creates backups of database files To back up SAP data using RMAN, the Backup Exec Oracle Agent is required, and the Remote Agent Utility must be run first. See About the Remote Agent Utility for Windows Systems. You must modify the rman_send parameters in the Init<SID>.sap file as follows:

where <INI file path> is the full path for the biparam.ini. For example: C:\oracle\ora92\database\biparam.ini. See Configuring biparam.ini for the SAP Agent. Ensure that the ini file path mentioned in the parameter util_par_file in the init<sid>.sap is the same path specified in the rman_send command. For backups and restores jobs done using RMAN, Symantec Backup Exec does not honor the configuration parameter (-r option) passed from BRBACKUP or BRRESTORE. Update init<SID>.ora as follows:

This parameter controls the minimum number of days that a reusable record is kept in the control file. To do an online backup, type the following command:
brbackup -d rman_util -t online -m all

To do an offline backup, type the following command:

Note: Before doing restores make sure that the database is in the mount state. Before running online backup jobs, run the following scripts:

Symantec Backup Exec Agent for Microsoft Exchange Server Symantec Backup Exec Agent for Microsoft Hyper-V Symantec Backup Exec Agent for Microsoft SharePoint Symantec Backup Exec Agent for Microsoft SQL Server Symantec Backup Exec Agent for Oracle on Windows or Linux Servers Symantec Backup Exec Agent for SAP Applications About the SAP Agent Requirements for using the SAP Agent About installing the SAP Agent About SAP Agent security and privileges Before backing up SAP data About system level SAP backup jobs About backing up and restoring with the SAP Agent Backing up SAP data with RMAN Restoring SAP data with RMAN Migrating the SAP Agent catalog from _backint.mdb to _backint.xml About backing up a clustered SAP database on Microsoft Cluster Server

These scripts will configure the database for an online backup. If the database is not configured properly, the job could fail. If you get the following error:
RMAN-00571: =========================================================== RMAN-00569: =============== ERROR MESSAGE STACK FOLLOWS

====

Run the following scripts:

$ORACLE_HOME\rdbms\admin\catalog.sql $ORACLE_HOME\rdbms\admin\catspace.sql $ORACLE_HOME\rdbms\admin\catproc.sql

After running the scripts, run the backup job again. Symantec Backup Exec Backing up SAP data with RMAN
