I'm trying to use RMAN and TSM to backup multiple databases spread across various nodes with some nodes hosting more than one database. The RMAN catalog database will reside on a node different from any of the nodes hosting the other databases. I have long used ADSM without the RMAN clothing to backup the databases. I have convinced the SA's to move on to TSM, and now I need to add the RMAN adornments.
I assume I need the SA's to install TDP for Oracle on all the nodes requiring RMAN backup. Do I also need to install it on the machine which will host the catalog database. That database will undergo cold backup using "naked" TSM. The same question applies to the tdpo.opt file. Do I need multiple TDPO_FS values and multiple tdpo.opt files to hold them. I am also assuming I will start RMAN from one of the databases requiring backup and connect also to the RMAN catalog. Is this typical.
