    Issue following BACKUP command to create data file backup set:

    BACKUP
    FORMAT /BACKUP/df_%d_%s_%p.bus
    DATABASE filesperset =3 ;


    Which two statement are true?
    a. The control file was NOT backed up
    b. Each data file was copied three times
    c. A channel was automatically allocated
    d. The archived redo log file were backed up
    e. The database was mounted or open when the backup occured.

    Can you explain this.. This is from STS 032

    I do not have STS with me, so I do not know the answer.. But I believe the answer is C and E.

    The reason is when you issue backup database. it will backup the datafile 1. and when datafile 1 is get backed up, the control file should be backed up too.

    Sorry that I am not sure which version of RMAN we are talking about. RMAN 8 or RMAN 9?


    If it is RMAN 9 we are talking about, then

    B can not be ture since filesperset is parameter to limit the number of files in one backupset, not parameter of copies.

    For A, if you have RMAN 9. You can check whether controlfile autobackup is off. If it is not, turn it off. Then issue backup database/ backup datfile 1/ backup tablespace system. Then you will know the result.
