Hi,
In 10g is there any new feature to merge the incremental backups?
ie :
Monday - Level 0 (incremental) with tag level_0_mon
Tuesday - Level 1 (incremental) with tag level_1_tue
Wednesday - Level 1 (incremental) with tag level_1_wed
In the above schedule, shall i merge the tuesday level backup with the monday level 0 backup and keep it as fullbackup upto tuesday ?
I read it in oracle doc but i cant understand it clearly so asking. plz...
you can if you want to
You do not have to merge anything, any level 1 backup after Monday will be sufficient as long as you have level 0 backup secured.
the whole point of the question was whether he can and the answer is yes and if you needed to it would save you a while heap of time on restoring!
Not a big deal, but his question was 'shall I', not 'can I'
I think the OP is looking for cumulative backups!
hi,

Is there any new feature to merge the incremental backups?
