Backing up a clustered SAP database on Microsoft Cluster Server

The Backup Exec for SAP Agent supports backup and restore jobs in a clustered environment for Oracle with the help of Microsoft Cluster Server (MSCS) and Oracle Failsafe.

To use the SAP Agent in a clustered environment, do the following:

Install both MSCS and Oracle along with Oracle Failsafe on both nodes of a two-node cluster environment.
Install the database that you want to back up on the shared disk to ensure that the database is properly failed over to the other node.
Ensure that the cluster has a virtual cluster name configured.
Ensure the Is Alive poll interval of the Oracle database resource is more than the average time needed to back up the full database.

See your Oracle Failsafe documentation for additional information on configuring and installing Oracle Failsafe.

See your Microsoft documentation for additional information on installing and configuring MSCS.

Note:

In a cluster environment, if a job created through BACKINT or RMAN is processing and the node fails over, the job operation does not restart from the point when the node went down.
