Purpose

A method for backup and restore of databases using Oracle Recovery Manager (RMAN),
EMC Symmetrix and Timefinder is described. The backups execute on a separate host
computer, which is typically dedicated for this purpose. When implemented correctly, the
method realizes substantial reduction of performance degradation in the production
database when creating backups, and provides the opportunity for fast recovery.
The methods used here provides the flexibility necessary to allow for various types of
recovery, which includes full, datafile, tablespace, and logical. Full database recovery is
described in detail, followed by a brief description of datafile, tablespace, and logical
recovery. This paper does not address Oracle RMAN Proxy Copy
