Hi Robert, could you please clarify a couple things for me since I've
never tried compressed backupsets?
Thanks,
Brandon

Seems you have already gotten some great answers! I might also suggest, if you are in 10g, that you look at adding compression to your backups (backup as compressed backupset database plus archivelog delete input). You might be amazed at how much smaller your backupsets are and how much time using compression can save on your backups (at the cost of some CPU of course).
When I do RMAN courses I like to demonstrate a compressed vs.
non-compressed RMAN backup. The compression itself can be impressive,
the time to backup savings can likewise be impressive (Ceteris
paribus.... oooops, can I say
that.....?)
