Notes:
Oracle now offers “Oracle Secure Backup”, an integrated tape management software solution. Oracle Secure Backup supports:
RMAN. As an RMAN media manager, it enables RMAN to backup directly to tape devices. Oracle Secure Backup Express Edition (free) is positioned as a replacement for Legato Single Server Version, which was shipped at no cost with Release 1. Express Edition supports just one tape device (among several other limitations).
Encryption of backups.
Any number of output devices, tape or otherwise, at a cost of $3000 per device.
Backup of non-database files. For example, you can backup the Oracle software in the Oracle Home.
Networked environments. A single installation of Oracle Secure Backup can be used to backup remote Oracle Servers.
