Re: controlfile backup obsolete

Rafiq that is a good point , but I have set my control_file_record_keep_time=7 (which is also the default , I think )
and recovery window is 4 days

Anything else to check ?

less than
: the time set for retention policy?
: I am not using rman but in Robert Freeman's 9i new features book I
saw

: Hello List, sorry about posting this again but , no one responded
and
: I am really stuck
: I am using Oracle 9i release 2 enterprise edition on win32
:
: After connecting thru rman , I made sure that I did not have any
: backupsets by running
: delete backup ;
: and then checked with list backup ;
:
: I have set a recovery window of 4 days with :
: CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY TO RECOVERY WINDOW OF 4 DAYS;
:
: And enabled autobackup of controlfiles and spfiles :
: CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP ON;
: CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP FORMAT FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO
: 'D:\%F';
:
: Then I created a backup of the entire database :
: backup database ;
: (This created a separate backup piece : D:\C-2202427048-20030619-05)
:
: This is the only backup of the control file I have. I checked with
: RMAN> LIST BACKUP OF CONTROLFILE;
