So, forgive the book plug but my RMAN book is a great "how-to" guide on getting started with RMAN. It walks you through various workshops from setting up, to backing up to restoring the database. It's available on Amazon (Oracle 11g RMAN Backup and Recovery from Oracle Press) and is reasonably priced.

As an aside, I'm looking to start a new book on Oracle Golden Gate..... Should be fun!

Cheers!

Subject: rman question

So I've been putzing around with rman and now I have a list of backups. If I want to restore the very last copy of the db, all I have to do is issue a:  

RMAN> recover database;  

that's it? And it will take that last copy even though I have about 7 or 8 listed?    

ciao,
Brian
