Maybe I'm missing something here, but wouldn't there have to be a way to
extract the pieces from tape without RMAN? Otherwise how would non-RMAN
backups work?
I'd list out the commands but I've never used Netbackup - we used Legato
NetWorker in the past. We wrote a number of scripts involving NetWorker
commands to aid us in management of the whole process (of course that's after
getting sudo for them first, the tough part). We needed this kind of access
since it was the DBAs who set defined the offsite tape rotation and were
responsible for all tape estimate needs.

Is there a netbackup command to extract these to disk without RMAN?

Here's an example of the Netbackup command (bplist):
unx01.baanprd /opt/oracle ->bplist -t 4 -k <YOUR_policy_name> -l -s 1/25/2010
-e 1/26/2010 -R /
-rw------- oracle oracle 12582912 Jan 25 21:21 /c-18889999-20100125-09
-rw------- oracle oracle 2359296 Jan 25 21:18
/baanprd_al_52855_1_709244222
-rw------- oracle oracle 3383296K Jan 25 21:15
/baanprd_db_52852_1_709243545
And, here is the related command (bpclimagelist) that you use to check the
retention settings in Netbackup:
unx01.baanprd /opt/oracle ->bpclimagelist -t ANY -policy <YOUR_policy_name> -ct
4 -s 1/25/2010 -e 1/26/2010
Backed Up Expires Files KB C Sched Type Policy
---------------- ---------- -------- ----------- - ------------ ------------
01/25/2010 21:20 02/08/2010 5 12320 N User Backup
TAR_DP-Oracle-BAANPRD-hot
01/25/2010 21:17 02/08/2010 5 2336 N User Backup
TAR_DP-Oracle-BAANPRD-hot
01/25/2010 21:07 02/08/2010 5 3383328 N User Backup
TAR_DP-Oracle-BAANPRD-hot
Note that these commands are pretty picky so you have to get them just right
(e.g. policy name is case-sensitive, must have client and server configured
correctly, or set them correctly with command-line parameters) or they'll just
return "EXIT STATUS 227: no entity was found".
Also, the bpclimagelist command is the client version of bpimagelist, and I
think it's only referred to as bpimagelist in the documentation.

Brandon

The key with dbms_backup_restore is that you need to know the piece names you
are dealing with. I know there is a way with Netbackup to get these names
