Summary
This white paper provides guidance and best practices for performing backup and restore of Oracle
10g Real Application Clusters using HP Data Protector Software.
Since the release of Oracle 9i Real Application Clusters, there has always been uncertainty about
what needs to be backed up and how to backup the RAC database. We will try to address these
questions throughout this paper.
This paper is not:
• Intended to replace the HP Software Data Protector installation and integration guides with Oracle
• A performance whitepaper on backup and recovery of Oracle Real Application Clusters
• A step-by-step installation and configuration guide
