Tape handling and tape rotation are also very important and I quite often see
problems in that area.
If tape handling is done by unmotivated people and they start cutting corners,
you'll see that allthough
backup procedures were good and recovery was tested, things can still go
seriously wrong when the
guy changing the tapes was slacking.
Seen it happen multiple times ...

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.
