RMAN Recipes for Oracle Database 11g - A Problem-Solution Approach

This book was written by seasoned professionals who have been using RMAN since
its inception. They have recognized that RMAN can be confusing, and they think everyone
should not have to go through the same learning curve in order to arrive at the same conclusions.
So they have gathered together their best practices and tried-and-true procedures and
compiled them into this wonderful book.
If you are an Oracle database administrator, this could very well be the most important
book you read. Technology books are famous for becoming shelfware, pristine and unopened
books adorning shelves everywhere. This book will be the exception—the book that is dog-eared
and worn, the cover falling off and pages smudged, found more often opened face down on a
desk than perched serenely on a shelf. The information within this book is the very essence of
the job of the Oracle DBA, the most important facet of the job, and I am grateful to Darl, Sam,
and Arup for sharing.
