I found no signs of RMAN being used in
any way shape or form...

I've been told they are doing "hot" backups using Veritas... HOWEVER, the alert log shows no signs what so ever of "alter tablespace xyz begin/end backup"...

Can it do a good backup backing up live
DB files and leaving no signs what so
ever that backup took place.

Is Veritas capable of this?

If so, why is there a Veritas interface
to RMAN???

Confusion, confusion...
