RE: What are the common mistakes DBA do retarding backup & Recovery?

Putting it in and knowing how to backup but not knowing how to use it to
recover.
 
Also, I would think the "backup database" command might be misleading to
most DBA's. It does not do a "switch logfiles" for you at the end of your
backup. Better to use command "backup database plus archivelog [all] [delete
input]". Or just know that you must "switch logfile" at the end to flush
remaining transactions out of your redo log files.

Hello List,
 
I would like hear from you about the common mistakes by most of the DBAs do
regarding the backup and recovery. I would think of the following:
 
1. Never testing their backups.
2. No good backup and recovery policies.
3. Afraid of using RMAN or Making benefits of RMAN 
 
I would really like to know if there are any other points than what I
specified above.
