I wrote a document which is available at
www.hcresources.co.uk/misc.shtml which describes a valid test scenario

Subject: Methods for testing RMAN backups?

 

I am getting ready to apply a patch to our databases and before doing so
I need to test our RMAN backups to make sure I can get them all back in
case there's a problem.  Plus, it's just good practice to test the
backups regularly anyway (BEFORE a disaster occurs).  However, I haven't
ever tested my backups before and want to see how others have done this.


Thanks in advance,

Vanessa
