Oracle MaxRep Agents

The Oracle MaxRep agents provide file system and application consistency protection for data that is hosted by Windows, Solaris, or Linux servers. The agents enable Oracle MaxRep for SAN to replicate consistent application data by tagging the data with consistency bookmarks.

Oracle MaxRep for SAN ships with the agent from the original equipment manufacturer (OEM). If you require additional information or an agent software package for a specific operating system, please contact your account representative.

Oracle MaxRep for SAN supports application consistency agents for standalone and clustered applications.
