 Hi,

I have 100GB of DB on Oracle 9i.
I am using following method for RMAN Backup
Plan - 1
--------
Sunday-Level 0
Monday to Saturday - Differential Incremental Level 1

Plan - 2
--------
Once a month - Level 0
Cummulative - Every Sunday
Differential Incremental - Monday to Saturday

Which plan is better and why? Also which level should I use for cummulative and incremental plan 2?

Regards,
Tushar

i prefer plan 1, why? less time recovery, less losses could happened.
and i usually keep the level 0 and it's incremental backups for 2 weeks before delete it.

every sunday you can go for a full backup and the other days you can take the incremental backup includng the archive files.

Hi,

We are doing presently full backup along with controlfile and archive log on Sunday. From Mon to Sat we take incremental level 1 backup along with control file and archive log files. Is this ok.
Is their any way to reduce disk space and have a RMAN backup?
