4.8.2 Configuring the NetBackup Policy for Archive Log Backup

Perform this step only if you wish to backup only archive logs. For Recovery Manager to perform backup and restoration correctly, you must use the following guidelines in conjunction with Veritas NetBackup documentation when configuring a NBU policy:

Backup Attribute	Select the Oracle type for the policy.
Backup Selections	1	Enter the location of RMAN backup script (/etc/3par/solutions/
		<primary_host>.ora.<oracle_sid>/
	2	vcdba_nbu_archbackup.sh).
		Recovery Manager will generate the RMAN backup script at the specified
		location when you create the configuration file (see 4.9 Recovery
		Manager Configuration Files on page 4.27 below for details).
Backup Schedule	1	Create a schedule for full backup.
	2	If you wish to perform immediate archive log backup (initiated from
		Recovery Manager), set the backup window to 0.
	3	If you also wish to perform automatic archive log backup (initiated from
		NBU), specify the backup window to fit your needs.
Backup Clients	Set the backup client to the host name of the backup host, as the backup
	process will actually take place on the backup host.
