Using the Fast Recovery Area
Darl Kuhn, Sam R. Alapati, Arup Nanda · Apress eBooks · 2013
In Chapter 2 you learned how to take an RMAN backup to a storage location on the disk. Disk-based backup offers significant benefits over backing up to tape, such as a considerably faster backup (and an even faster recovery), the ability to merge backups to make the recovery quicker, the constant validation of incremental backups, and so on. In subsequent chapters, you will learn more about those operations. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
