Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Need some help understanding RMAN with full and incremental backups
Hello
I am trying to determine what a full backup in RMAN is, and incremental. Also, if you were to loose your target database completely, but you had the recovery catalog what types of backups would you need to completely recover the target database? Can you recover if you just do level 0 backups (is that a full backup?). Anyways, just a little confused on this, and could use some helpful hints on this.
Thanks in advance
