    Hi all,

    I have Oracle database.I take rman backup everyday.Also I set a scheduled backup script.But scheduled backup size is 166MB,but if I take manual rman backup(rman>backup database) this backup size will 2.8GB.This backup isn't incremental backup.There is a problem.But I can't solve it.Help me!!

    backup script:

    run
    {
    backup database plus archivelog delete input format 'C:\db_11g_backup\backup\oracle_scheduled_backup\backups\%d_%t_%s.rman';
    restore database validate;
    delete noprompt obsolete device type disk;

    If you are looking to increase the size of each backup piece then you can configure it along wich channel.

    configure channel device type disk maxpiecesize = 4g;

    the above commands configures the automatic disk channel and limits the maximum size of a backup piece to 4G.

    Thanks vnktummala,

    My problem isn't this.I execute this script as scheduled,backup size is too small.But I take backup manually,backup size is normal.I guessed there is an error in script;but I couldn't anything...

    }
    Perhaps the "plus archivelog" makes the difference...

    agree, but poster said backup piece size is less when he used "plus archivelog"...
