But i guess RMAN only considers used block size?

So do we need to consider total size from dba_segments?

select sum(bytes/1024/1024/10124)
from dba_segments;

Is that correct?

Thanks,

No. You need the content of the files up to their HWM which will change from one backup to the next one, so take the whole files.

So i need to check bytes for dba_data_files?

select sum(bytes/1024/1024/10124)
from dba_data_files;

The output size is 150GB

So should i consider by LEVEL 0 backup size is = 150G?

Thanks,

Yes, it is safe as it (ignoring size of control file and spfile that are very small).
You have to add to this the size of archived logs generated during the backup depends on your activity during this time.
