Using the agent, you can back up complete Oracle databases and individual Oracle database objects, such as tablespaces, data files, archived redo log files, control files, parameter files, and the recovery area.
You should back up all of the objects in a database immediately after you create the database and maintain a regular backup schedule to ensure smooth recovery in case of database or media failure. Arcserve Backup allows you to set and maintain a schedule of automatic backups.
Agent backups are performed through scripts the agent sends to the Oracle Recovery Manager (RMAN). These scripts are generated automatically based on the options you choose on the Backup Manager, and are saved under <oracle agent home dir>/rman_scripts. They are saved for the amount of time you specify in the environment variable <DAYS_RMAN_SCRIPTS_RETAINED> in the agent.cfg file.
