Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> RMAN - releasing tapes when database no longer exists
We are using RMAN and Backup/Express to backup databases to tape. Several
databases have been deleted but where not unregistered from the rman
catalog and the backupsets have not been deleted either. This is causing
Backup Express to hold on to tapes that we need to mark as scratch.
Normally I would connect to the catalog and database, delete the
backupsets, and unregister the database, but since the databases no longer
exists I can't. How can I tell rman to tell the media manager that it can
release those tapes?
