Has anyone done any analysis on compression rates? We compress at the tape drive level as most do, and have several Oracle DBs that backup LAN-Free. For Oracle data that backs up to disk (smaller DBs and archive logs) we compress at the TSM client level.
Oracle can do the compression with the following command:
BACKUP AS COMPRESSED BACKUPSET DATABASE
For LAN-Free, the tape drive would not compress further if the client is doing it, but how does RMAN compression compare with tape drive compression? (LTO-4)
For our smaller DBs and archive logs going over the LAN to disk, how does RMAN compression compare to TSM client compression?
