Hello everyone, I have a question, I am new to netbackup still and I am doing 
some progress. I did install on my linux boxes clients and now I am sucessfuly 
backing them up, now the next step that I want to try is to backup oracle. I 
know that there are different ways of doing oracle backup but I was told by my 
DBa that previous admin was given stop and start scripts and he took care of 
the 
rest, but I have no idea how to use those stop and start scripts with netbackup 
to bring oracle down and then start after backup is completed. Anyone has any 
hints? WHen I looked up on the server side in policy settings I did see options 
for oracle rman backups but my DBa says that we dont use rman to back up any 
databases... Where could I get more info? any one has any suggestions...

I greatly appreciate your help.
