I was tasked to backup oracle VMs and i some VMs have ASM disk, I need to know if it is supported to backup these ASM disks because these disks have critical data that need to be protected.

Question
ASM Disk backup supported for Oracle VM backup ?
+6hello
Yes bro it is supported you can find the details here:
https://docs.commvault.com/11.42/commcell-console/configuring_oracle_asm_instance.html
However, please be careful about a few important points
ASM disks (disk-groups under Oracle ASM) are not regular file-system disks, so ensure the ASM instance is configured
If you are using a proxy for “RMAN backup copy”, both the ASM and RDBMS instances must be configured on the proxy machine, and the ASM data must be backed using RMAN because “ASM data is not available on the file system

We’re happy to help if you’d like us to walk through a checklist or map your specific environment i recommend open support case
