Setting Up NetBackup Policies for NBU (User-Managed) Backup
Recovery Manager for Oracle supports NetBackup (NBU) with or without RMAN. The following
sections describe how to set up NBU policies for NBU backup without RMAN.
Recovery Manager for Oracle supports full, incremental, or cumulative incremental archive log
backup (backup only archive logs). When performing NBU backup without RMAN, Recovery
Manager supports only full database backup (incremental database backup is not possible).
However, you can combine full database backup with archive log backup to simulate incremental
database backup.
Recovery Manager for Oracle requires that you create an NBU policy for database backup. If you
wish to perform archive log backup, you must create a separate NBU policy for it.
NOTE:
This section is intended for the users who are familiar with the Oracle Database and
Symantec NetBackup (NBU). For more information on creating a NetBackup policy, refer to
Symantec NetBackup documentation.
Configuring the NetBackup Policy for Database Backup

following guidelines in conjunction with Symantec NetBackup documentation when configuring a
NBU policy:
