RMAN - ready only TS backup and recovery
Database: RAC - 4 nodes
ASM
OS: Linux 6
DB size: 55 TB
Read only TS: 1 TB
I need to Backup six read only tablespaces and have the following questions:
My understanding is that after I run the following commands for each tablespaces, and I understand my first backup database run will include the data file of the Read Only Tablespace.
alter tablespace tbs1 read only;
alter tablespace tbs2 read only;
alter tablespace tbs3 read only;
I have retention period of 30 days. let say, I need to restore these six tablespaces after one year without affecting the existing database, how would I take care of this? Presently backing up on tape via net backup. Do I need to add any more steps in my backup script to exclude these tablespaces?
