Nbir,
Well I'm no expert on backups, but we are in the process of rolling out
rman and Veritas Netbackup across our company. This includes several
databases that are well over 200GB. We have an ATL (Automated Tape
Library) with around 300 slots and currently 10 drives. We are having
some, as yet undetermined, "issues" with NetBackup taking drives
offline. The rman piece seems to be working when the NetBackup piece
cooperates.
We are also working out differences between different dbas with regards to
backup philosophy. For example, rman does not need to shut the database
down to get a "good" backup. For some of us, this was difficult to
comprehend how you can get a consistent backup while the database is up and
running. Also, different groups have different practices on how many
archived redo logs to keep. With rman, we are trying to standardize on
length of time to keep them after they are backed up.
I haven't been involved with the script-writing pice, so I can't help you
there, but I hope to get my hands a bit more dirty with B&R after I pass my
performance tuning test.
Good Luck
