Bergman Precedence: bulk Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit I am using RMan with and without the Catalog... if the Catalog goes down..my backups and restores just switch to Nocatalog mode and keep on ticking.. My goal is to restore/recovery just a backup that resides on tape rather than accessing the Disk copies... I guess that Rman at least with the Catalog knows of both... What would the command be to only recover using the tape media backups...???? I think Rman doesn't directly give you that option(RTM)... so I was wondering if somebody knew a work around to Force RMAN and the Catalog to only recover from the Tape backups. Brian Spears -----Original Message----- Sent: Monday, March 31, 2003 11:24 AM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Brian - I couldn't figure out what you are asking. First of all, are you intending to use RMAN with a catalog? Are you wanting to distinguish the backups for a report or on recovery. I think that RMAN will record all the backups you have performed and will want to use the most recent backup for recovery. If it is just a report, you could use the "TAG" parameter when you perform backups so the disk backups and tape backups could easily be listed differently.
