Configuring DBA-initiated job settings for Oracle

When you create a DBA-initiated backup operation, you can specify the default job template in Backup Exec, or specify a new job template that you create in Backup Exec. The job template contains the settings that Backup Exec applies to DBA-initiated jobs.

Make sure that the name of the job template that you want to use is also configured in the instance information on the Windows computer.

See Configuring the Oracle Agent on Windows computers.

See Configuring the Oracle Agent on Linux computers.
