Can RMAN check if another backup is running and conditionally execute steps?

in Database Backup and Recovery (MOSC) 7 commentsAnswered ✓

Hello,

I run a weekly full, and daily incremental backup. They are at different times.

I have added an hourly archive backup. I don't want the hourly backup to collide with either of the full or incremental backups. I have tried to stagger the times. Such that the archive log backups run at 40 minutes after the hour.

But, is there a way from within RMAN to check if the inc 0 or inc 1 job is running, and to not run the archivelog backup if it is?

Thanks

Howdy, Stranger!
