I have an Oracle database 11gr2 and I have installed Oracle Grid on Oracle Linux 5.9. I have two disk groups.
/etc/init.d/oracleasm listdisks :
flash_recovery_area
DATA
The first disk group is mounted on /u01
and the second is mounted on /flash_recovery_area
.
The value of fra parameters are:
db_recovery_file_dest = /+flash_recovery_area
db_recovery_file_dest_size = 30G
When I want to connect to rman and get backup from current database, I can but I can not find anything in /flash_recovery_area
destination.
Can any one help me?
