Hi,
I create two vms in virtualbox and configure 10g RAC using a shared disk. Share disk was created in virtualbox and assign to vms.
Now I want to test tape backup in this rac. How can I create Tape drive and assign to rac Vms.
As I have no SAN but using virtualbox, I can install RAC.....
So, is there a way to configure virtual tape drive....

Regards,

AFAIK this is not supported in Virtualbox and therefore not possible out of the box.

So,
Is there any other way to achieve this..... I mean install some virtual tape software .....

Short of writing your own simulation of a tape drive and donating it to the VirtualBox project - no, there is nothing you can do.

I have done it..
I want to share it.....

I install mhvtl on both nodes and configure tape library.....
Then I install netapp client for 10g...
Finally I run rman and take backup..... backup was successful.

Regards,
