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

How about running an Rman backup to tape, Rman says it worked fine, and
not attempting a restore.  I've seen these fail because of MM problems.
My running joke is that I can back anything up to tape via Rman.
Proving I can restore it is what I really get paid for.

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.
