9i rman takes about 15 minutes to set up.

The testing is what takes time. I can't see any reason to hire in = consultants to set up your b and r recovery. Setting it up yourself = will force you to learn. ...and testing it will reinforce what you = learn. ...besides, breaking databases is fun.=20

Subject: [Q] How many days to setup RMAN on UNIX server?

We plan to setup RMAN on out SUN Solaris server with ORACLE 9ir2 = databases.

We ask ORACLE provide us the price quote and ORACLE ask 5 days to = implement. Based on my experience setup RMAN should NOT more than two = days. Is ORACLE 5 days request reasonable?

Following are ORACLE suggestion:

Engagement Kick-Off Meeting (½ day)
Team member introductions and role definition

Overview of the RMAN architecture=20
Re-Link Oracle with the necessary libraries to support RMAN. =20 This task may require several hours of downtime on the affected system.
