Ron, Steve
When I attended the Oracle Backup & Recovery class last fall, the
instructor explained that a version of Legato is shipped with RMAN, but the
functionality is limited to performing disk backups. In other words, RMAN
needs something plugged into it to perform disk backups, so a special
version of Legato is used. Anyway, that was my understanding of what he
said.

Steve,
As a follow up I checked the Legato.com site and they advertize as the
only company shipping a media management software with every copy of
Oracle even 9i. I located the product. I Believe it is incorporated into
the OEM backup strategy but it is not a stand alone product that I could
find.

Steve,
Good thought but I can not find any reference to Legato on the 8i for
Linux disks. I did find reference to a readmelsm.doc in the index on
the 8i for Nt disk but I could not find the file or the software.
Think
I will try the web for Legato for linux.

I once used the scaled down version of Legato that came for free with
Oracle
and configured it without any problem. I used the tape drive on the DB
server. Does Legato still come with 8i or 9i?

List,
I need the name of a good book that deals specifically with RMAN. I
have read the fine manual and have found out that it basically works
with a third party vendor software if you are using tape as the backup
storage media. There has to be a way around this requirement. I have a
70 GIG test database that I would like to use Rman on and I am not
going
to use a catalog for RMAN. I have a system tape drive that I would
like
to use to backup each tablespace individually. I do not have a large
or
multi cartridge drive to use. Backup to disk is not possible as I do
not
have much free space.
Could you please inform me of the contents of your
V$BACKUP_DEVICE.DEVICE_NAME if you use a tape drive for backups.
Thanks,
Ron
