raccli create backup

This topic does not apply to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure or to Oracle Cloud at Customer.

The create backup subcommand of the raccli creates a backup of the configuration files, inventory configuration files, Grid Infrastructure and Oracle Database home, database, and tooling metadata of an Oracle Database Classic Cloud Service database deployment that uses Oracle Real Application Clusters (RAC).

raccli create backup  [-tag tag-name] 

This subcommand runs asynchronously. That is, it creates a job to perform the backup, reports the job ID of the created job, and then exits. To track the progress of the job to its completion, use the raccli describe job command.

If the subcommand fails, it reports a FAILURE status and provides a message describing the reason for the failure.

Options of this subcommand are as follows.

Option	Description
-tag tag-name	The name of the backup job. This is not an RMAN tag.
