The following two types of backups are supported in the Database Module:

Backup and restore using export and import of data

OR

Backup and restore using Recovery Manager (RMAN)

CAUTION

Using Recovery Manager (RMAN), archive logs can fill up available disk space if backups are not done regularly.

It is recommended that the Export/Import method be used to backup and restore data.

Table 10, “Comparing backup and recovery methods,” on page 72 outlines the major differences between the two types of backups.

Table 10 compares the Export/Import and RMAN backup and recovery methods.
