You'd be able to get basic snapshot-based backups working, but restores and cloning would require a lot of scripting.

Hi,
I am trying to figure out if it is possible and supported to back up and clone Oracle databases on Oracle Linux machines hosted on Oracle VM using FC LUNs.
I read TR-3712 (Oracle VM and NetApp Best Practices Guide), TR-4700 (SnapCenter Plug-In for Oracle Databases), and TR-3633 (Oracle Databases on ONTAP), but none of these TRs talk about the combination of SnapCenter+OVM. I am not able to come up with an answer from the IMT either.
Can someone, perhaps Jeffrey Steiner who is very active on this mailing list, shed some light on this?
Thanks in advance! Filip
