Can change the default number of backup pieces in each backupset?

672680Nov 6 2010 — edited Nov 7 2010
I know that by default, one backup set contains only one backup piece.
So, I wonder how can I change that default number to be greater than 1?

I ask, because, as below, you can see that for one time backup, RMAN created two backupset.
And I want it to create one backupset instead:
RMAN> list backup summary;


List of Backups
===============
Key     TY LV S Device Type Completion Time #Pieces #Copies Compressed Tag
------- -- -- - ----------- --------------- ------- ------- ---------- ---

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
