RMAN Script to Take Full Database Backup Plus Archivelog

You can use this RMAN script to create a backup of an Oracle database and save it to a specified destination.

It is important that the BACKUP_BASE_PATH exists and the ORACLE_SID is replaced in the script.

The script will create a folder inside of BACKUP_BASE_PATH with the ORACLE_SID.

In this article I show you how to backup your Oracle database using a bash script.

You will use 3 files for the RMAN backup.

You execute it like that to generate a level 0 backup for your SID:

./rman_backup.sh -d {SID} -l 0

For level 1 backup you should execute it like that

./rman_backup.sh -d {SID} -l 1
