Specifying the filesperset parameter

The filesperset parameter specifies the number of files that RMAN can include in each backup set.

Procedure

To set the filesperset parameter in an RMAN backup script, use the backup command. The following example uses the backup database command:
backup filesperset = n database ...;
where n is the number of files RMAN includes in a backup set. The default value is 8.

Results

RMAN compares the value of the filesperset parameter with number of files to be backed up divided by the number of allocated channels, and then uses the lower of the two values. For example, if the total number of files to be backed up is 8, the number of channels is 1, and filesperset is 4, RMAN creates two backup sets each with four files.
