If we configure FRA(Flash Recovery Area) by default RMAN backup sets will be created in the FRA.
RMAN is capable of taking the backup into disk but not into tape library. In order to take the backup into tape library, we need to integrate RMAN with third party MML(Media Management Layer) softwares like Tivoli data protector for oracle, HP data protector for oracle, Veritos, Legato or OSB(Oracle Secure Backup).
OSB is propreitory of oracle and it is separate licenced product.
In case of tape backups third party administrator is going to install third party software and all the database servers.
Once third party software is installed, we need to create RMAN backup, restore and recovery scripts by specifying third party specific environment variables.We can get all third party specific environment variables from support.oracle.com.
In oracle 11g, oracle has introduced multi section backups where we can split out the backup of huge datafile into multiple sections.
In oracle 10g, oracle has introduced block change tracking to minimise the incremental backup time.
Once we enable block change tracking , a new background process CTWR(Change Track Writer) gets enabled and it keeps track of the modified blocks information and updates to a separate file created at Operating System level.
Note : If RMAN is the backup policy, recommanded to configure Large Pool(LP) otherwise RMAN uses some space in Shared Pool(SP).
