Hi all - Can anyone tell me if this script is following best practice for the base backup for an incremental strategy. The reason I ask is that I am confused by channel allocations in particular to the delete.

Thanks


RUN {
allocate channel c1 device type disk;
backup incremental level 0 database;
backup archivelog all delete input;
delete noprompt obsolete device type disk;
release channel c1;
}

The best practice is not in a single script but in the overall policy.

Ok understood perhaps I should have been clearer. I meant will my script work and is it efficient? I mean is there a downside to using a single channel for the tasks in the script or should I create separate channels for the delete?

There is no need to more channels to delete but maybe you need more channels to back up.
It depends only on your hardware.
