The agent and Oracle reside on the same computer. When Arcserve Backup starts to back up a database object, it sends a request to the agent. The agent retrieves the object from Oracle and sends it to Arcserve Backup, where the object is backed up to media. Similarly, the agent transfers the database object when the file is restored from media.
For more information about backing up databases and database objects, see the chapter Backing Up Data. For more information about Oracle backup and recovery procedures, see the Oracle documentation.
Note: In a Real Application Cluster (RAC) environment, a copy of the agent must reside on at least one node in the environment. In addition, this node must have access to all archive logs. Otherwise, the backup operation is essentially the same.
