PowerProtect Data Manager 19.12 Oracle RMAN User Guide

Troubleshooting an incorrect self-service backup report for different backup types in same session

When you perform different types of self-service data backups such as full and incremental backups with archive log backups in the same RMAN session, the backups job can be reported incorrectly in the PowerProtect Data Manager UI.

For example, you might run the following backup command to perform the full and incremental backups with archive log backups in the same RMAN session:

backup incremental level=0 database plus archivelog delete input tag='oracle-L0'

In this case, the Oracle self-service backups job name and subtype can be reported as LOG instead of FULL or INCREMENTAL in the PowerProtect Data Manager UI.

To prevent this issue, perform a self-service data backup and archived log backup by using separate backup commands. Performing self-service backups of Oracle databases provides examples of RMAN backup scripts that perform a full backup of a database and its archive logs in separate statements.
