Hi all,
I have quite a simple backup strategy
1) fullbackup level 0 - Saturday
2) cumulative incremental level 1 - Any other days
3) Retention period - 1 month
Q1) How do I find/confirm the parent of an incremental level 1 backup ? (e.g. how do i confirm the parent backup of the inc backup done on Wednesday)
Q2) On Week3 Saturday, i encounter a disk space issue and my level 0 fullbackup fail partially (3 out of 4 backupset created, the 4th backupset failed).
On the next day, Sunday - when the next cumulative incremental backup run, how will RMAN/Oracle behave ?
Does it based the incremental backup using the 3 x level 0 backupsets that were created successfully yesterday; and for those datafiles in the 4th backupset (which failed yesterday), it will base the incremental backup on the previous week (Week2 Saturday) level 0 backup ?
Regards,
Noob
