Hi,

What we are interested in is what kind of performance the Oracle module has,
and what other sites have experienced using it.    I'm also assuming (from
the literature I've read) that RMAN is used on the Oracle end and hands off
the data to Legato for backup, and vice versa for restores.

I have Oracle 8.x Installations on WindowsNT/2000 and Oracle 9.x & RAC
on WindowsNT/2000 and TruCluster5.x. The experiences with RMAN are good.
The 8.0x versions had some flaws with non american language settings but
since 8.1.x i had no major problems. On the legato side i use 3.0/5 of
the oracle module. The performance on all installations is very good. I
mean in no installation oracle & rman are the limiting factor. Most of
the times the backup devices (DLT8000 & LTO1) are the "bottleneck". Most
of the configuration work is for rman scripts. You define the device
type sbt_tape and oracle module takes the data to your nsrserver.

OraclePress has a very good book about rman scripting:
