Yes, level 0 incremental backup is a full database backup.

The backup srategy for you should always depend on the following factors
- what's your tolerance of data loss

The best backup strategy that has been working for me very well is as followed,
- Level 0 Incremental Backup monthly

HTH,
Zhong
It's another beautiful day!

Hello

I am trying to determine what a full backup in RMAN is, and incremental. Also,
if you were to loose your target database completely, but you had the recovery
catalog what types of backups would you need to completely recover the target
database? Can you recover if you just do level 0 backups (is that a full backup?). Anyways, just a little confused on this, and could use some helpful
hints on this.

Thanks in advance
Tom Tyson
