Robert,
I used incrementally updated backups in 10gR2 (or at least thought
that's what I was doing). A quick peek at the docs confirmed that
they did exist then:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/backup.102/b14192/bkup004.htm#BRBSC186
Is there something distinctly new about them in 11g? Or are we not
talking about the same thing?
Cheers,
Don.
