I would much rather use an incremental strategy with compressed
backupsets.  However, I'm limited by what the other DBAs will agree to
(we currently use cold and hot user-managed backups).

It occurred to me that maybe you were basing this on the OEM suggested
backup strategy. One major sort coming to this strategy is that it
requires significant amounts of space (the image copies are not
compressed). Personally, unless I need very fast recovery, I tend to shy
away from this due to the size of the backup image. If I have a need for
fast recoveries, then one can often justify stand-by database in those
cases.

I'd prefer a compressed backupset myself, with incrementals.

Hello everyone,

The Oracle recommended strategy for backing up a 10g database is image
copies with incremental updates.  Is there something similar in 9i.
What is the Oracle recommended strategy in 9i?


Thank you,

William
