 Oh RATE is SOOOO 9i!!  :-)

This is a 10g database so be looking at the *duration* parameter instead!!
Talk all about this in chapter 16 of the 10g RMAN Book!!


I suppose there are circumstances where you might choose DURATION.

RATE however will ensure that your backups will finish, however slowly.

DURATION will interrupt and discard a backup that does not complete within
the specified window.
Personally I can't think of a situation where I would want to do that.

Why would you use it?
