Backup databases

Thread needs solution

Does backing up databases like oracle database and SQL can still access their database while backing up?

if yes, do we have whitepaper or document that stating is it accessible while backing up.

Thank you.

Hi!

Acronis Backup 12.5 uses Volume Shadow Copy Service (VSS) for consistent backup of databases and complex applications. This ensures the consistent state of all data used by the applications; in particular, completion of all database transactions at the moment of taking the data snapshot by the backup software. Data consistency, in turn, ensures that the application will be recovered in the correct state and become operational immediately after recovery. For more information refer to https://www.acronis.com/en-us/support/documentation/AcronisBackup_12.5/index.html#36357.html

If VSS is broken or the backed up application is not compatible with VSS, you can suspend and resume a database or application by using the pre/post data capture commands. See Pre/Post data capture commands.

Thank you,
