backup database with plus archivelog
I am putting together a new backup design for the department using RMAN scripts. I am at a testing and designing phase, and run into an issue that one of the archive log files is missing and has caused the script failed at lthe ine "backup database plus archivelog" .
Two questions:
1. In case I couldn't locate the archive log file, what options do I have?
2. If I do contue to use 'backup database plus archivelog' on a daily scheduled basis, how far the RMAN will need those archive logs, because I figured that the local drive holding the archive logs will eventually be filled up.
