More Information
- There is no way to exclude specific Oracle databases from being processed by Application-Aware Processing.
- As an alternative to completely disabling Oracle processing, it is also possible to force the skipping of databases in NOARCHIVELOG mode without warnings. To enable this behavior:
- For VMs running Windows, create OracleSkipNoArchiveLogDB (DWORD) registry value under the HKLM\SOFTWARE\Veeam\Veeam Backup and Replication key.
- For VMs running Linux, add OracleSkipNoArchiveLogDB="true" to the VeeamOracleAgent.xml config file.
- For Machines protected using Veeam Agent for Microsoft Windows, create OracleSkipNoArchiveLogDB (DWORD) registry value under the HKLM\SOFTWARE\Veeam\Veeam Endpoint Backup key.
