Product Description
It’s sometimes said that the true job of an Oracle database administrator can be summed up in one, essential skill: to be able to recover your database. There’s much wisdom in that statement. Of all the things you are responsible for as a database administrator, nothing is more important than the data itself. Like it or not, the fearsome responsibility of protecting your organizations most critical data falls squarely upon your shoulders: - Lose that data and your company could fail.
- Lose that data and you could be out of a job.
Scared? You should be. But theres help. You are not alone. Oracle experts Darl Kuhn, Sam Alapati, and Arup Nanda have come together in this book to show you the power of Recovery Manager, or RMAN, which is Oracles backup and recovery tool of choice.

 Very useful RMAN Book April 30, 2008
I have had this book just over a month and have found the book quite useful. I have yet to review the entire book but have been picking it and reading it from time to time and learning new things or better ways of doing tasks in RMAN.
Wonderful Learning Tool & Continuous Reference April 23, 2008

I just took a graduate level course on RMAN at Regis University which was taught by one of the authors (Darl Kuhn). I am very new to Oracle and this book serves several purposes:
--Introduction to RMAN for those who have never used it
--Learning through hands-on case scenarios and how to utilize them (for almost ANY situation)
--A continuous reference for experienced DBAs
--Touches on a few topics external to basic RMAN, such as the restoration of online redo logs, running RMAN on Windows, the data recovery adviser, and utilizing RMAN through the enterprise manager.
I sell most of my text books after I'm done with the class, this one I will keep.
 Excellent Practical Version April 14, 2008

This is an excellent book that I ever had. This book provides us what we need to do in a step by step method for all imaginable scenarios. This may look repetitive but it provides the complete solution in that fashion rather making us to scrape through different chapters and leaving us in doubt on what to do. If some one is looking for rman internal algorithms, they can search elsewhere. But if they are trying to have a book that could provide easy, quick and straight forward solutions in a crisis, this is the one they might need. This really helped me to troubleshoot and resolve the issues on different occassions.RMAN Recipes for Oracle Database 11g: A Problem-Solution Approach (Expert's Voice in Oracle)

I just finished reading this book. I must admit that I like technical books that have examples you can test and see the results yourself. The book has a lot information and especially rman new features with Oracle 11g. The best way to take advantage of this book is to have a test server on hand to try RMAN problems in the book. I recommend this book. It will enhance your knowledge of rman in Oracle 11g.
I give 5 stars.
