External Backup

scottjhnOct 10 2012 — edited Oct 11 2012

Oracle 11g on Linux.

The FRA is configured based on ASM diskgroup +FRA. The backups are scheduled to be saved there at 2:00am daily.

Now I want to backup the db to a second location (external USB hard drive), in addition to the FRA. So I'll get two copies of the backups, one on the FRA diskgroup and another on the external hard drive.

1) How should I configure the RMAN to achieve this goal (of additional backups to the external drive)?

2) Will the next day's backup over-write the earlier day's backup? or Just add additional new backup files to the drive (Assume I use the default setting which I believe is the full database backup)?

Thanks
