Check Logical while doing backup

edited Aug 27, 2009 8:39AM in Database Backup and Recovery (MOSC) 4 commentsAnswered
  As per metalink doc #388422.1

Use of  'check logical' parameter  while doing backup of database has been advised.

REASON: This will cause RMAN to check for logical corruption within a block as well as the normal head/tail checksumming. This is the best way to ensure that you will get a good backup.

.. What if periodically we are also checking restore with validate option. Does this take care of  checking physical and logical errors in database files

Howdy, Stranger!
