File System Backup: Oracle Base and Cluster configuration
After reviewing the online backup configuration of the RAC database, we need to focus on the
backup of the Oracle software directories and the cluster configuration files. As these components are
not addressed in the Online backup, we need to define an additional File System backup
specification.
Important Note:
These files need to be backed up on a regular basis or when there are configuration changes.
