Does HyperBac for Oracle work in a RAC or Data Guard environment?

Yes. In an Oracle RAC environment, HyperBac for Oracle should be installed on each physical node in the RAC configuration. This will allow for all types of physical, logical, hot and cold backup operations on any node and would provide complete flexibility for disaster recovery, duplication or ETL operations. However if you wish to perform all backup operations from one node, you would license and install HyperBac on this particular node only. In an Oracle Data Guard configuration, HyperBac can be installed on the primary or standby node or both depending upon which system is used to perform the backups or exports.
