Automatically tape eject after backup
70489Jun 26 2009 — edited Jun 26 2009Hi Experts!
I'm currently evaluating Oracle Secure Backup (not the Express version) as a replacement for Legato Networker, for backup of our existing 10gr2 Oracle database.
My Question is: Is it possible to have the tape automatically become ejected after Database Backup using RMAN, so that the operator can change the tape?
At the moment we are using a jukebox which handles load/unload for us, unfortunately the hardware is quite old, and we can't swap our LTO-2 drives for newer ones. So we plan to buy just a new LTO-4 tape drive, and to control the tape drive directly through the Oracle Secure Backup solution.
Any hint would be much appreciated!
Thank you,
Joachim
