rman - How to backup into one giant file
Hello all,
I use the following rm commands to backup a NOARCHIVELOG Mode database:
allocate channel db1 type disk;
BACKUP COPIES 1 INCREMENTAL LEVEL 0
FILESPERSET 0
FORMAT '$BACKUP_DIR/df_%u'
DATABASE;
So far, it produces 3 output files. I need to have ONE output file. Here are additional 'show all' info:
RMAN> show all;
using target database control file instead of recovery catalog
RMAN configuration parameters for database with db_unique_name ARSORA are:
CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY TO REDUNDANCY 1; # default
CONFIGURE BACKUP OPTIMIZATION OFF; # default
CONFIGURE DEFAULT DEVICE TYPE TO DISK; # default
CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP OFF; # default
CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP FORMAT FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO '%F'; # default
