Dex Sent: Jueves, 04 de Agosto de 2005 08:09 a.m. To: oracle-l@freelists.org Subject: Rman backup archivelogs How do you make rman backup the necessary archivelogs and then delete them when they are no longer necessary? I am new to rman. One book that I read says you have to do this by putting "backup archivelog all"; in your script but doesn't mention how to delete when they aren't necessary. Then someone else told me you don't have to put anything in a script, you just set CONFIGURE ARCHIVELOG BACKUP COPIES FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO 1; I am rather confused at this point. _________________________________________________________________ Express yourself instantly with MSN Messenger!
