RE: RMAN

Steve,
 Good thought but I can not find any reference to Legato on the 8i for Linux disks. I did find reference to a readmelsm.doc in the index on the 8i for Nt disk but I could not find the file or the software. Think I will try the web for Legato for linux. Ron

I once used the scaled down version of Legato that came for free with Oracle
and configured it without any problem. I used the tape drive on the DB server. Does Legato still come with 8i or 9i?

List,
  I need the name of a good book that deals specifically with RMAN. I have read the fine manual and have found out that it basically works with a third party vendor software if you are using tape as the backup storage media. There has to be a way around this requirement. I have a 70 GIG test database that I would like to use Rman on and I am not going
to use a catalog for RMAN. I have a system tape drive that I would like
to use to backup each tablespace individually. I do not have a large or
multi cartridge drive to use. Backup to disk is not possible as I do not
have much free space.
 Could you please inform me of the contents of your V$BACKUP_DEVICE.DEVICE_NAME if you use a tape drive for backups. Thanks,
Ron
ROR mª¿ªm
