Re: Backing up Oracle 7 db with Seagate

Finally got to install the Oracle Backup Agent last week. It seems to work just fine. Once setup, you can see all of the data files associated with an instance. You can choose to back it all up or certain pieces. You do have to add a user to the instance following the instructions in the Agent's manual.
