Ref:(RMAN Backup)

[atkinson]

Hi All,

I understand 'set maxcorrupt for datafile 1 to 0' helps to fail the backup if 1 or more corrupted blocks are found in the datafile 1. The database has over 800 datafiles, do I have to put

set maxcorrupt for datafile 1,2,3,...800 to 0, or is there any other way to put corruptions to 0 for the whole database during the rman 0 lvel backup.




Thanks,
A.

Hi,
You need to specify all the datafile's.
There is one script which u can find in metalink what will help you to specify for the entire database, please check that.

By default, the maxcorrupt is set to 0. The backup does not tolerate corrupt blocks.

Per documentation : http://download-west.oracle.com/docs...nc1.htm#462384

"Use the SET MAXCORRUPT command to allow a certain number of previously undetected block corruptions in specified datafiles. If a BACKUP or COPY command detects more than this number of corruptions, then the command terminates. The default limit is zero, meaning that RMAN does not tolerate corrupt blocks."
