//Getting Started with RMAN

1. RMAN Client: installed with databse
2. target database
3. fast_revory_area

Starting RMAN and Connecting to a Database

$ rman

$ rman
RMAN> CONNECT TARGET SYS@prod

or
$ > rman target SYS@ORCLUAT;

$ rman
RMAN> CONNECT TARGET /

RMAN> EXIT

RMAN> SHOW ALL;

// output of RMAN
image copies or backup sets
image copies: byet-byte copy (only to disk)
backup sets: media manager backup command

//To back up the database and archived redo logs while the database is open:
if in archivelog mod
RMAN> BACKUP DATABASE PLUS ARCHIVELOG;

if in nonarchivedmod
RMAN> SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE;
RMAN> STARTUP FORCE DBA;
RMAN> SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE;
RMAN> STARTUP MOUNT;

RMAN> BACKUP DATABASE; //Run the BACKUP DATABASE command

or RMAN> BACKUP AS COPY DATABASE;
RMAN> ALTER DATABASE OPEN //Open the database and resume normal operations.
