Are you allocating two channels (do you have parallelism configured to 2)?  If 
so, this is probably why it is splitting up your files.  If you use just one 
channel (no parallelism), then you should get just one large file.

RMAN> show all;
. . .
CONFIGURE DEVICE TYPE SBT_TAPE PARALLELISM 1; # default
CONFIGURE DEVICE TYPE DISK PARALLELISM 1; # default
. . .

Subject: [Q] RMAN backup as one big file problem?


We have ORACLE 9.2.0.6 on LINUX server.  The database
have 4 datafiles

   system
   undo
   data
   index
While we doing RMAN backup we specify "backup database
filesperset=6;", RMAN does NOT backup all 4 datafiles
to one big file.  It backup system, undo and data
files as one file.  It also backup index as another
file.

Does their has way to make RMAN backup all datafile as
one big file?

Thanks.
