Hi,

Have your tape library (backup device) configured to your SAP host.

You can schedule backup through DB13.

1 run DB13

2 Click on the day or you can opt your daily options

3 Than you will get the following option

4 Select the backup type -> example: Whole database offline backup

5 In the screen > Tapes for Database backup -> Give tape name or disk

6 Give profile name (init<sid>.sap)

Also you have process clearly defined in sap help.

Thanks,

Surendra
