Joe,
Interesting. We are wrestling with our warehouse backups. Currently doing
a cold backup after the weekly loads. I'm not sure if this would help us or
not. We don't have monthly loads like you do.

Tom it still points back to being able to backup a level 0 once a month and
do just incrementals the rest of the time(like once a week). for our case 3
terabyte DW, we expect long down time at end of month but relatively short
down times every other weekend since we do incrementals.
my 2 cents worth.

Dennis,
I don't see why Oracle even provides this type of backup (database in
mount-only mode using Rman). To me, if I was considering this, I would
just shut the database down and perform a cold backup. Using Rman in this
situation is a waste of time (unless someone can give me a good reason why
it is useful).
Rman's biggest strength is point in time recovery, and that the db is up
and available all the time.
Anything else just seems like a waste to me - no practicality to it.

Joe - Good point. I usually don't even consider offline RMAN backups. But
for a really large database, that might be useful.
