Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: decision to use or not use an rman catalog?
Sure, but in Ryan's case it sounded to me like they were using hardware
only, i.e. backing up via BCV copy only with no tapes.
Yes, you have to rely on the tape management software's retention policies so best to double-check them your self (e.g. via bpclimagelist for Veritas Netbackup).

BCV copies can still be sent off to tape, can't they? Main difference that I would see is that you would then be using the tape management software's retention policies, instead of RMAN's.
