Add On-Premises Database to Recovery Service Using Cloud Protect
The Cloud Protect Fleet Agent registers the on-premises database with Recovery Service to create a protected database.
In SQLcl, run the
rcv
add
database
command to automatically detect the database clients and
generate a configuration (JSON) file. The configuration file includes the parameters
required to add the database to Recovery Service. Then, run the rcv
add
database
command again, along with the configuration file, to register
the database with Recovery Service and create the protected database. Oracle recommends
that you follow this automated method to add databases to Recovery Service.
Another method is by manually connecting to every database (with
SYSBACKUP
privileges) and then using the rcv
add
database
command to add each database individually.
Note
Cloud Protect assigns the Oracle defined Bronze protection policy as the default policy for all databases. You can change the default policy in the configuration file before adding the database.
