73.You are using Recovery Manager (RMAN) to perform backups. In which three situations would you
perform a compressed backup? (Choose three.)
A. You are backing up to tape and your tape device performs its own compression.
B. You are making image copies, and you have not enabled tablespace compression.
C. You are using disk-based backups and disk space in your Flash Recovery Area, or other disk-based
backup destinations are limited.
D. You are performing your backups to some device over a network where reduced network bandwidth is
more important than CPU usage.
E. You are using some archival backup media, such as CD or DVD, where reducing backup sizes saves
media costs and archival storage.

Making Compressed Backups
For any use of
the BACKUP
command that creates backup sets, you can take advantage of RMAN support for binary compression of
backup sets. Specify theAS COMPRESSED BACKUPSET
option to the BACKUP
command.
RMAN compresses the backup set contents before writing them to disk. The details of which binary compression level is used are automatically recorded in the backup set. There is no need to explicitly mention the type of compression used or how to decompress the backup set in the recovery operation.
Example 9-7 backs up the entire database and archived logs to the configured default backup destination (disk or tape), producing compressed backup sets.
Binary compression creates some performance overhead during backup and restore operations. Binary compression consumes CPU resources, so compressed backups should not be scheduled when CPU usage is high. However, the following circumstances may warrant paying the performance penalty:
-
You are using disk-based backups when disk space in your fast recovery area or other disk-based backup destination is limited.
-
You are performing your backups to some device over a network when reduced network bandwidth is more important than CPU usage.
-
You are using some archival backup media such as CD or DVD, where reducing backup sizes saves on media costs and archival storage.
