Excellent thread on VLDB and backups. I know EMC BCVs/Timefinder works for quick disk backups from experience. However, EMC is not an option, we are a IBM shop w/ Shark storage, Raid-5. The IBM reps say flashcopy works the same if not better than EMC BCVs. Question, is this pure marketing

Brian - Hopefully Robert will have a chance to respond to your question, but if I might make some suggestions, I think your recovery time has two components: 1. If the backup files are not on disk, the time to locate the tape, load the files. 2. RMAN recovery time. I think you will just have
