Hello,
I'm curious how people handle the backups for
large/very large databases; 200gb or greater.
My questions are not targeted towards any
specific hardware platform, but we are using
Oracle 8.1.7. I'm assuming that archiving is enabled.
Are backups done nightly, or because of
time constraints are they done weekly ?
If weekly, do you feel comfortable having to possibly
apply a week of archives, in the case of a recovery ?
Do you use disk or tape ?
Do you use RMAN or other backup tools ?
What are the customer's expections for recovery and
how do they effect your backup strategy ?
I appreciate your input.
