About redirecting a restore of Oracle data

In Backup Exec, you can redirect an Oracle instance or its files by redirecting the following:

  • An Oracle instance to another Oracle server.

    Note:

    If you redirect the instance to a different Oracle server, ensure that an instance with the same name and database ID (DBID) is set up on that server. The database status should be Nomount. Refer to your Oracle documentation for details on creating an instance with the same name and database ID.

  • An Oracle instance to another Oracle server and specifying alternate paths for the Oracle files.

  • Tablespaces, datafiles, and archive logs to an alternate location on the original server.

Symantec recommends that you select only one instance for each redirected restore operation.
