Using VERITAS NetBackup for Backup and Restore
VERITAS NetBackup provides for high performance, online (hot) backups of databases that must
be available on a 24x7 basis, as well as offline (cold) database backups. VERITAS NetBackup lets
you back up and restore database files and directories. You can set up schedules for automatic,
unattended, online, and offline database backup, as well as full or incremental backup. These
backups are managed entirely by the NetBackup server. You can also manually back up database
files from any of the NetBackup clients. Client users can perform database backups and restores
from their client systems on demand.
