RMAN Scripts
These all scripts will be helpful for understanding the RMAN scripting
Note: Configure controlfile auto backup on by below command
configure controlfile autobackup on;
configure controlfile autobackup format for device type disk to '/u10/catdb/backup/auto_cntrl_%F';
RMAN Script: Database Full Backup
To take rman offline backup mount the database and run the below script. Do not forget to startup the database again.
It is better to include shutdown/startup as a part of the script. For more details please check our other rman offline backup script.
