I have had this book just over a month and have found the book quite useful. I have yet to review the entire book but have been picking it and reading it from time to time and learning new things or better ways of doing tasks in RMAN.

I just took a graduate level course on RMAN at Regis University which was taught by one of the authors (Darl Kuhn). I am very new to Oracle and this book serves several purposes:
--Introduction to RMAN for those who have never used it --Learning through hands-on case scenarios and how to utilize them (for almost ANY situation) --A continuous reference for experienced DBAs --Touches on a few topics external to basic RMAN, such as the restoration of online redo logs, running RMAN on Windows, the data recovery adviser, and utilizing RMAN through the enterprise manager. I sell most of my text books after I'm done with the class, this one I will keep. (Review Data Last Updated: 2008-04-29 05:54:46 EST)

This is an excellent book that I ever had. This book provides us what we need to do in a step by step method for all imaginable scenarios. This may look repetitive but it provides the complete solution in that fashion rather making us to scrape through different chapters and leaving us in doubt on what to do. If some one is looking for rman internal algorithms, they can search elsewhere. But if they are trying to have a book that could provide easy, quick and straight forward solutions in a crisis, this is the one they might need. This really helped me to troubleshoot and resolve the issues on different occassions.RMAN Recipes for Oracle Database 11g: A Problem-Solution Approach (Expert's Voice in Oracle)

I just finished reading this book. I must admit that I like technical books that have examples you can test and see the results yourself. The book has a lot information and especially rman new features with Oracle 11g. The best way to take advantage of this book is to have a test server on hand to try RMAN problems in the book. I recommend this book. It will enhance your knowledge of rman in Oracle 11g.
I give 5 stars. (Review Data Last Updated: 2008-04-06 11:53:53 EST)

If you are an Oracle DBA, this book will give you examples and solutions to RMAN problems that you won't find anywhere else, including Oracle's documentation. RMAN recipes gives DBAs specific examples on how to solve problems and then goes into detail on how and why the database works like it does.

There comes a time in your DBA profession that you stop caring about new books and prefer Oracle documentation from the horse's mouth. Yet another RMAN book which doesn't say anything different than the FREE Oracle documentation! If you are new to DBA profession, you might find something useful in it. But if you already know RMAN, save your money and print out Oracle doco.
