Re: RMAN Skip Tablespaces

Hi

We have done this a couple of times in 9i and 10g. In 9i we had problems with rman while restoring as we needed to do some steps manually (rman order of dropping tablespaces did not work) we had to drop the index tablespaces first or some such thing.

10g it worked version 10.2.0.3

regards
Hrishy
