Configuring and Managing the
Administrative Domain
This chapter explains the basic steps involved in setting up an Oracle Secure Backup
administrative domain after initial installation of the product on all of your hosts.
Some steps, such as "Adding a Host to the Administrative Domain" on page 5-3, are
also useful when managing an existing administrative domain.
This chapter contains the following sections:
■ Administrative Domain Configuration Overview
■ Configuring the Administrative Domain with Hosts
■ Adding Tape Devices to an Administrative Domain
Administrative Domain Configuration Overview
This section describes the steps involved in configuring an Oracle Secure Backup
administrative domain. It assumes you have installed the Oracle Secure Backup
software on each host in the domain, as described in Chapter 2, "Installing Oracle
Secure Backup on Linux or UNIX" or Chapter 3, "Installing Oracle Secure Backup on
Windows".
These instructions explain how to configure the administrative domain with host and
tape device information using the
Oracle Secure Backup Web tool. You can perform
the same tasks using the obtool command-line interface to
Oracle Secure Backup.
The instructions set up administrative domain security in a default security
configuration that should be adequate for most users. Further configuration of users,
user classes, security options, and the Oracle Secure Backup media management layer
for use with Recovery Manager (RMAN) in backing up Oracle databases might be
required in some cases. For details, see Oracle Secure Backup Administrator's Guide.
