Online backup of a database can be implemented by configuring either the primary host or a dedicated separate host to perform the backup operation on snapshot mirrors of the primary host's database.
Note: |
All commands require superuser (root) or equivalent privileges, except where it is explicitly stated that a command must be run by the database administrator. |
For more information about using snapshots to back up Oracle databases, see the Veritas InfoScale Storage and Availability Management for Oracle Databases.
