From doc(http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/backup.102/b14194/rcmsynta009.htm#i1009966):
| Quote: | FILESPERSET
When used with commands that create backupsets, specifies the maximum number of files to include in each backupset created.
By default, RMAN divides files among backupsets in order to make optimal use of channel resources. The number of files to be backed up is divided by the number of channels. If the result is less than 64, then it is the number of files placed in each backupset. Otherwise, 64 files will be placed in each backupset.
