Hi,

I'm using RMAN controlfile backup for my 24X7 system running 9.2.0.1. This system can't afford to have downtime. The scheduled RMAN is daily full backup. The archived logs are backup together into tapes only. Let say few months down the road, something happens and I need to recover. I need to have all the archived logs for the recovery? What if I lost a few oldest archived logs? Can I still able to recover the DB?
