Seems to me, if you set up a backup with the 'exclude tablespace' option, and 
the list of tablespaces to exclude is hardcoded, then adding new tablespaces in 
the future shouldn't compromise anything....?

I need some help with configuring RMAN for Oracle 10gR2. I've been asked to 
submit a request to have our outsourced DBA's configure our backup to exclude

Can it be guaranteed that there will NEVER be a new tablespace added?

If not, then this is sure to cause problems in the future.
