To add a Linux computer in Portal, you must install Linux Agent software on the computer and register the Agent with Portal.
The Agent is installed on Linux systems where you want to back up and restore data. As shown in the following diagram, you can use Portal to manage the Agent and jobs, back up data to a secure vault, and restore data from the backups.
The Linux Agent can back up:
•Files and folders on the Linux system.
•System files required for recovering the operating system, including registry and boot files.
An Oracle Plug-in, which backs up and restores Oracle databases, can be installed with the Linux Agent. There is a separate installation kit for the Oracle Plug-in for Linux.
