Oracle RMAN agent and File System agent coexistence

PowerProtect Data Manager supports the coexistence of the Oracle RMAN agent with the File System agent on AIX, Linux, and Windows.

The coexistence of these agents enables you to protect the Oracle database with the host file system. PowerProtect Data Manager supports the following configurations for agent coexistence:

  • Both agents are in managed mode (registered to PowerProtect Data Manager) and have the same software version.

    PowerProtect Data Manager does not support the coexistence of agents in managed mode that have different software versions.

  • Oracle RMAN agent is in standalone mode, with the File System agent registered to PowerProtect Data Manager.

    The File System agent in managed mode can coexist with the standalone Oracle RMAN agent that performs the Application Direct operations on Oracle databases.

NOTE:

The latest version of each agent must be installed if the agents are registered to PowerProtect Data Manager. The File System agent is supported in managed mode only.

PowerProtect Data Manager does not discover or manage any backup copies that the standalone application agents protect.

The steps for installation and usage for each agent are the same. The supported cases table under "Application agent and File System agent coexistence" in the PowerProtect Data Manager File System User Guide provides more information about the supported use cases.
