I neglected to mention that we're trying to backup to
tape. I'm not sure what is involved with configuring a
media manager for Oracle that will allow Rman to work
with a tape drive but it would seem to me at that
point I'm into a 3rd party solution anyway. Yes? No?
What does it take to get a tape drive to work with
RMAN? If a 3rd party solution is better, then I'm back
to inquiring about an inexpensive, but useful,
solution.
Thanks.
