Oracle RMAN backup and restore scrips

Prerequisites

The use that is to run the RMAN scripts must be allowed to access the RMAN CLI, i.e. must typically be part of the dba Linux group on the database machine.

For being able to run scripts using SSH the SSH public key (/.ssh/id_rsa.pub) of the caller should be added to the authorized keys file (/.ssh/authorized_keys) of the RMAN user on the database machine.

This Git repo should be cloned into the database machine (or made available on the database machine by other means).
