Examine the steps/operations performed during the RMAN backup operation by using
Oracle Secure Backup (OSB):
1.Start the RMAN client by using the RMAN target / command.
2.Start the RMAN client by using the OSB user.
3.RMAN creates the backup pieces.
4.Run the RMAN backup command with the sbt channels.
5.OSB creates a backup job and assigns a unique identifier.
6.OSB creates a backup job request through the OSB sbt library.
7.OSB stores metadata about RMAN backup pieces in the OSB catalog.
8.OSB starts the backup operation.
9. OSB updates the RMAN catalog.
Identify the required steps/operations performed in correct order.

Why D? It’s C! It’s obvious because the 9 step is false :The Oracle Secure Backup catalog is stored and managed completely separately from the RMAN recovery catalog. Oracle Secure Backup stores each backup piece and corresponding metadata about the piece.
Besides that the link you provided has the right sequence!
The basic process for RMAN backup and restore operations with Oracle Secure Backup is as follows:
An Oracle Secure Backup user starts the RMAN client, either through the command line or the Oracle Enterprise Manager console. – 2
The Oracle Secure Backup user allocates an SBT channel and runs an RMAN BACKUP or RESTORE command. – 4
When the channel is allocated, a server session starts on the Oracle database.
The server session on the database host makes the backup or restore job request through the Oracle Secure Backup SBT library. – 6
Oracle Secure Backup creates the backup or restore job and assigns it a unique identifier such as sbt/15. – 5
For an RMAN backup operation, Oracle Secure Backup immediately tries to reserve and start the appropriate resources. If the resources are unavailable, then Oracle Secure Backup queues the job while it waits for the resources to become available. – 8
RMAN creates or restores the backup pieces. – 3
For backups, Oracle Secure Backup stores metadata about RMAN backup pieces in the Oracle Secure Backup catalog. – 7
The Oracle Secure Backup catalog is stored and managed completely separately from the RMAN recovery catalog. Oracle Secure Backup stores each backup piece and corresponding metadata about the piece.
Thanks Vonpire!

My fb: http://www.facebook.com/tri.ho.378 . I will take exam on 25-mar-2016. I will tell you result 🙂 Keep in touch.
IS C Correct?
A
https://docs.oracle.com/cd/B19306_01/backup.102/b14234/obadm_odb.htm#BDCEAADE
“After you have configured RMAN to use the Oracle Secure Backup SBT interface, the procedure for making RMAN backups is the same as described in Oracle Database Backup and Recovery Basics.”
So, no need to login as “OSB user”. Everything is the same as normal backup.
Yeah but what does: After you have configured RMAN <– mean could also mean: Start the RMAN client by using the OSB user.
I will stick to C.
I only have a doubt relating to this step :
6.OSB creates a backup job request through the OSB sbt library.
It should be: the server session creates a backup job request through the OSB sbt library.
But as I said I can’t find information nowhere related to the 9 step.
Can anyone find in oracle doc this step?
OSB updates the RMAN catalog
Answer is C
The Oracle Secure Backup catalog is stored and managed completely separately from the RMAN recovery catalog. Oracle Secure Backup stores each backup piece and corresponding metadata about the piece.

C Vonpire has in my opinion right and ‘sorry for that’ Siegfried is this time not at the right side.
