Backup EXEC: LAN-Free backup Oracle RAC on Linux using RMALS

I need a solution

Hi,

Post this quesiton again after confirmed that it's supported to use RMALS and SSO to do Linux LAN-Free backup. Any help is appreciated.

I got issue to setup Linux LAN-Free backup. 

 

1. When backup Linux local files, the backup use local tape device. It's LAN-Free.

2. When backup RAC database on linux, the backup go through LAN and use BE windows server to write to tape.

Maybe It's because the tape library is shared (I have SSO, the tape library is shared between BEWS and RMALS), I can't assign job to the Linux Media Agent, there are only devices(shared) under BE server when setup job's device and media.

Why local linux file go through SAN. My guess is, when backup local file, the source server name is same as remote media agent, so it use local tape drive.

But when backup RAC, the source name listed in "Oracle Real Application Clusters" use different name as my remote media agent. My remote media agent hostname is "rac1", but here the name of RAC source is "RAC-RAC-2384294311". Is this matter?

How can I assign the job to specific media agent server as destination in SSO environment? 

Thanks!

Richard.
