I've tried to find this in the docs to no avail.
If I'm writing out an RMAN backup to one disk(yes this is not ideal), then
does it make sense to allocate multiple channels?
Are multiple channels related to CPUs or to destinations?
thanks, joe

restores,

1) Why do you feel writing RMAN backup to one disk is not ideal? Is it
the one disk, or disk vs. tape?
2) I would watch the I/O while it is running to see how close you are
coming to maxing out your I/O subsystem.
3) I suspect, but haven't investigated, that RMAN defaults are
