QUESTION POSED ON: 06 August 2007
How to back up an Oracle RAC database with RMAN? It must be trivial for you guys but my background is more Solaris.

>
EXPERT RESPONSE
There is no difference in using RMAN on a RAC database compared to using RMAN on a non-RAC database. To RMAN, these are the same. To get you started with using RMAN to back up your database, please visit my Web site. I have a white paper titled "RMAN Notes" which can be of assistance.
