AFAIK: The tool to backup a Oracle 7 db is called EBU (Enterprise backup Utility) and seems to be a bit different to RMAN. But you can use TDP for ORACLE to backup version 7 dbs as well. (see installation Guide Page 3).
HTH Kind regards Thomas Rupp Vorarlberger Illwerke AG -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Zoltan Forray [mailto:zforray@;VCU.EDU] Gesendet: Dienstag, 22. Oktober 2002 16:59 An: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Betreff: Oracle and TDP issues We just purchased the TSM TDP for Oracle on NT/2K. We installed it, only to realize it won't work since there is no sign of RMAN.EXE on this machine? So, the owner of this box/package contacts the vendor. Their response was"Oracle is version 7.3.4, not 8i or 9i, which will not run with their app. .... said the person she spoke to did not seem to know what RMAN was....." So, how does one backup an Oracle app/database, using the TDP without RMAN ? I am not an Oracle person but even I know that RMAN is the utility to do database backup/restore/maintenance ! Suggestions, anyone ? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dieses eMail wurde auf Viren geprueft.
