Incremental rman backup of standby database possible?

Alain F.2 days ago — edited 2 days ago

Hello folks,

I have a 5 Tb Oracle 19c database in active Dataguard configuration.
We take backups of both the primary and standby databases, the latter going to storage offsite for redundancy.
As of now, I take only full backups of the standby database but considering its size and the slow access storage its backups go to, I was wondering if I could go for level 0 / level 1 backups as I do on the primary.
Do incremental backups of a standby database (open read-only) make any sense ?
I have failed to find any reference to this.

Thanks in advance for your advice,

Alain
