Greetings,
V9.2.0.5 Tru64 5.1B
I'm fairly new to RMAN, and have been asked to look into the feasibility
of switching to RMAN for our backup strategy, with the goal of reducing
Legato licensing cost. Now a tape-only strategy would be straight
forward, but we don't want to spring for the Networker Module for
Oracle. As would a disk-only but we don't enough free disk space to
keep more than one copy of our 8-900Gb database online.
So is it possible to use RMAN to backup to disk, then move them to tape
without RMAN's involvement. and when a restore is necessary, use RMAN to
take the backup files directly from tape? I'm willing to do a bunch of
research and testing here, but would rather not be banging my head
against a wall if this scenario is out of the question. From other
posts it sounds like I'll have my work cut out for me at a minimum.
Thanks for your thoughts on this matter.
Regards,
Mike Hand
