Managing RMAN catalogs
NetBackup lets you associate an RMAN catalog with one or more databases in your Oracle environment. Adding an RMAN catalog then provides the benefit of recording backups and backup metadata in the RMAN Catalog. For Data Guard environments, Oracle requires that you use an RMAN catalog so you must add the catalog for Data Guard databases.
Add an RMAN catalog
After you add an RMAN catalog to NetBackup, you can then associate databases with that RMAN catalog.
