Hi,
We're doing this it and it's all fine. We take backups of the image copy from the FRA to tape via RMAN and this acts as a check on the state of the image copy.

Subject: RMAN incrementally updated image copy as a long term backup solution?  

Hi,
We are considering to use RMAN image copy as our backup method, then apply the daily incrementals to update the image copy.  Has anyone done that before?  If the image copy is corrupted, will it be picked up when the daily incremental is applied?  Or we need to run validate periodically on the copy?
Thank you,
Chen
