Re: Best backup software for daily backups...

  We use RMAN to backup to disk. From disk, our sysadmins backup the files to tape. I believe they are using Legato Networker. They frequently have problems with their backups - I don't know the specifics. I just know that there are many times that I have been thankful that we never bothered to interface RMAN and Networker. My databases are independent of their backup problems (as long as my backups eventually get to tape!). And if I need to create a test database from a backup, it is right there on disk. I don't have to wait for a tape drive to become available.   We didn't have the time to get the interface working. And if I remember correctly, there were additional licensing costs for an Oracle/Networker module. I think we're better off in the long run.

I have no experience with other backup software for Oracle. It has worked for me and I have been using since I started here.

  Thankyou Ruth, What about Veritas Netbackup and Tivoli software for bakcups,   Which one do you think is best and effective in long term and easy to admin.   Thanks again for your only response.
