ABIO Oracle Agent
VIRBAK ABIO Oracle Agent is designed to help IT administrators prepare for a complete , non-disruptive protection of Oracle databases (which is the core of key business operations and activities). Managing Oracle data is often the most critical part of an IT department¡¯s responsibility. ABIO Oracle agent is an enterprise level solution, that dynamically automates and simplifies many of the tasks associated with handing Oracle backup and recovery.

ABIO helps users to effectively carry out the online and offline backup of the database, as well as simplifying the recovery process the event of Oracle failure or disaster.

VIRBAK ABIO's Web Browser-Based GUI allows the administrator to work in multiple function windows simultaneously, enabling users to execute backup jobs, as well as monitor and handle multiple table spaces in parallel.

Given the intuitive nature of VIRBAK ABIO, even users with limited experience can perform an oracle online backup with a few clicks. (ABIO's file management interface is similar in nature to Windows Explorer)

Backups can be performed by the entire oracle database instance as well as at the table space level.

Archive redo log files are managed by ABIO. Often times, Oracle services are suspended or stopped due to the aforementioned redo log files exceeding the amount of available disk space. To circumvent this problem, each time ABIO performs a ¡°hot¡± backup, it will check the file system and the usage of archive redo log files. In the event that the data size of the archived log files exceeds the value articulated by the user, ABIO will delete the files (Users specify the threshold limit of the log archive)

Key Features and Benefits

 Designed to provide online ¡°hot¡± backups
Non-disruptive and complete Oracle Database Protection. It assures databases remain fully accessible to users while a backup is in progress.

 Support Granularity Level of Backup and Restore
Supports table space level of backup and recovery. Backups include configuration files, logs and databases and provide the same backup/restore granularity.

 Automated Backup
Schedule can be set for automatic unattended backups for both local and client machines.

 Easy and fast deployment with the present infrastructure
ABIO is simple and easy to install, configure and manage in an Oracle Agent. Support for a wide range of UNIX, Windows and Linux platforms, as well as a variety of Oracle versions, making it easier to maintain Oracle backup and recovery.

 Designed to provide LAN and SAN backups and restore
Administrators can perform a LAN-free backup of Oracle databases, or can perform a conventional LAN backup. In the event that a user has a multi-Tera byte Oracle database, ABIO will employ a SAN backup, greatly enhancing backup performance and decreasing the backup window.

 Web Browser-based management
Administrators can initiate a backup or recovery, as well as manage Oracle data from a remote location using web access.

 Automated archive log file deletion
ABIO prevents archive redo log file overflow by automatically deleting the archive once it has reached the size specified by the user.
