Our environment is 11.2.0.4 / OEL 6 / RAC.

Currently we are using Netbackup, compressed incrementals to the FRA, then backup recovery area to tape.
Our company has purchased the EMC suite of backup tools to replace Netbackup.

My understanding is the optimal use of DD Boost/DD is to turn off compression, set FILESPERSET to 1, skip backups to the FRA; going directly via the DD Boost module to DD, essentially using DD as your tacit FRA.

I would appreciate hearing any experiences with respect to your B/R strategy using DD Boost / DD.

Thanks...
