RMAN recovery window and NOARCHIVELOG mode incompatible?

edited Nov 18, 2009 4:26AM in Database Backup and Recovery (MOSC) 9 commentsAnswered
 We are pretty new to RMAN (used BMC's SQL*BackTrack) and are using the 'recovery window' retention policy for our warehouse databases (which are in noarchivelog mode).  We were under the impression that a recovery window of 7 days would control really 2 things - a) how far back you could recover and b) when things become obsolete.  This was actually looking like it was working, however, something else caused me to open an SR with Oracle and the analyst told me that you cannot/should not use window with a noarchivelog mode database - we should be using the "redundancy" setting

Howdy, Stranger!
