Hi all, We have an 11.2.0.1 database which is about 2T in size, and generates 700k of redo per second. We're running on Sun/Oracle SPARC 64-bit - v10. Any estimates as to how long an RMAN incremental level-0 (full) backup might take to run - say when backed-up to a local mount and/or to an NFS mount? Right now, we're allocating 8 channels. Also - has anyone experienced a significant decrease in RMAN backup I/O throughput after upgrading from 10g to 11g - resulting in backups taking 2-3x longer than before the upgrade? If so, any suggestions? Thanks for your help.
