Re: Yosemite

RMAN is just plain easy to use.

The only problem I've ever had with it is communication with 3rd party backup libraries (Veritas) and that was just a matter of syntax.

All third party tools do is use/generate an RMAN script, and run it on the server.

As Ruth G said, it is also mature and just works.

Why add more complexity to it?
