The 101 Backup and Recovery book by Oracle Press that Dennis mentioned is good. I
don't have the book here on my desk, and Amazon for some reason doesn't mention the authors names on it's web page (need to shout at OP about that maybe)...

Also there is a O'Reilly RMAN handbook that is out, but it's more for reference and not
for learning.

Even though it's not about RMAN, and the later versions were not as concise and full of juicy architectural tidbits, the Oracle8i Backup and Recovery Handbook by Rama Velpuri is quite good with regards to the Oracle database internals and recovery.

My new RMAN book just showed up on Amazon a few days ago for pre-sales!!

Robert,

Wondering if you would mind posting some of the best resources for RMAN that you have found besides the documentation. I have a request from someone who is a newbie to track down some info, I would recommend your book if it was out yet :)

Thanks,
Ethan
