Chris,

here is one way - use the SETSIZE command

7>      backup                                                          
8>        incremental level 0                           
9>        setsize 2220000

it will figure out how many database files to fit into the 2 gig limit above and create multiple pieces.

hope this helps.

How do you split a RMAN backupset into multiple pieces? I am using Standard Edition so I can't use multiple channels but I need to split the backup up because of a 2GB file size limit (I'm backing up files from a Solaris box to a Linux box).
