MAA Gold Backup Configuration

FinanceDB and FinanceStby are the primary and standby databases respectively in a Data Guard configuration, onboarded with a pair of Recovery Appliances Montreal_ZDLRA and Vancouver_ZDLRA using a non-replicating protection policy. Configure these databases to send backups and redo to their respective Recovery Appliance using a common vpc user commonvpc. A global named credential DB_SYSDBA_USER is specified for the databases and target-specific named credential specified for each host, DB_HOST1_CRED and DB_HOST2_CRED.
