Wrong. How could I've shown the breakage, without having used it?

If you mean that I did not yet use RMAN in production: You're right. The current solution works very well and there's hardly a benefit, if I would use RMAN. That's so, because of the unique (?) scenario I've got to deal with. If I just would need to backup Oracle, then RMAN would of course the way to go.

As far as I'm concerned, I'm only changing something, if there's a benefit. A perceived benefit. If you're different: Fine. Don't expect that anyone agrees, that changing such a basic thing just for the heck of it, is a good thing. It's not. Proven, reliable solutions are king. But that's just the difference between you and me.

Wrong as well, as you very well know. How should I have read the docs to you, without having read it? I'm referring to the thread where you "helped" and I responded that what you wrote is not covered by the docs (the controlfile thing).

And wrong again. As I've shown.

Man - can you get at least *one* thing right? I posted the version I was using. And anyone knows, that 9.2.0.4 is not the latest on Solaris.

Yep. "etc., etc., etc.". More of the same bullshit from you.

Surprise: You're wrong again.

I don't want to repeat myself, but you leave no choice: You're wrong.

How do you submit a SR, if you don't have support? And if you think you know that I didn't try to get in contact with Oracle: You're wrong again.

Wrong.

I'm not like you.

I only deal arrogantly with you and Daniel, as both of you are such extremely arrogant persons.

Says the troll.

I showed to you, that RMAN doesn't work.

Ah, so you actually admit to flame? That makes you the troll here, you know?

Which is, what I've always done. I was of course always and ever just speaking for me. But don't let facts disturb your imagination.

I think the same of you.
