That's correct! It's true that work with RMAN is a little bit hard, but if use LTO2
you will see the advantage of using TDP for Oracle. There's no disk subsystem so fast
as LTO2. Those drive units can transfer at 70MB/s compressed.
So to utilize the LTO2 drives with it's full capacity you have to multiplex your
database backups. And you can only do that through TDP for Oracle. Multiplexing means
that you read from several datafiles in parallel and send them in one stream or
session to TSM Server.
SQL-BackTrack, can't do it.

Subject: ? Oracle TDP needs RMAN??
Hello all,
I am working with a some Oracle people to define a backup solution.
I suggested using the Oracle TDP for doing HOT backups. They said that the
TDP does nothing for them because they do NOT use RMAN. They write their
own scripts to freeze/release the table spaces and do backups. Does this
sound correct? Oracle TDP works directly with RMAN?
Thanks
Matt
