I believe that RMAN only backs up blocks that have been allocated to an oracle object
- index, segment, table, etc. If the block is in a datafile but not in use by an
oracle object (that is, the block is free), then RMAN doesn't backup those blocks.

I have taken hot backup using RMAN. The total Size of the Database is
5200MB(By Sum(byes) in Dba_data_files). Where us the backup file size put
together is 4600MB.
Where am I missing the remaining 600MB?
Thanks
Raj
