Hello all, Currently doing a RMAN bi-weekly backups to disk. Database is running ASM on Netapp storage. I am considering netapp snapshot backups for Oracle RAC to reduce the Oracle overhead. Have anyone used it on a critical production database? What are your thoughts? Have you seen any issues with it? Thanks in advance -Upendra _________________________________________________________________ Windows 7: I wanted simpler, now it's simpler.
