hi Oracle gurus, We have a 2T database in 10.2.0.2 version on Linux Box. We plan to using Flashback database feature on this DB. the undo_retention is set to 21600, Flashback log will be put in FRA area as default. We need a 15 days guarantee for Flashback, each week we have a full hot backup to FRA also, What a big volume should be consider as Oracle Flashback recovery area size ? any suggestion ? how much should be used for Flashback logs also ? Is that enough we give 7* DB size as FRA area size ? -- ("'-''-/").___..--''"'-._ '7_ 7 ) '_. ( ).'-.__.') (_Y_.) ._ ) '._ '.
