Using Agent backup scripts (tape backups)
This topic outlines how to use scripts to perform tape backups from Replication Manager.
Because Replication Manager performs tape backups using a separate backup management product,
you must configure a script to execute the necessary commands. Using an agent user script in
conjunction with a batch command file, you can back up a database to tape from the primary volume
using the secondary volume in a single operation.
This topic includes the following information:
• Coding rules for scripts
• Script entries
• Agent script example
• Environment variables
• Unmounting after an automatic mount
• Batch command file example
• Preparing the user script and batch command file
