@

Syntax

Text description of the illustration basicc1.gif

Purpose

To execute a series of RMAN commands stored in an operating system file with the specified full path name, for example, @$ORACLE_HOME/dbs/cmd/cmd1.rman. If you do not specify the full path name, the current working directory is assumed, for example, @cmd1.rman. Do not use quotes around the string or leave whitespace between the @ and filename. RMAN processes the specified file as if its contents had appeared in place of the @ command.

Note: The file must contain complete RMAN commands; partial commands generate syntax errors.

Restrictions and Usage Notes

Execute at the RMAN prompt or within the braces of a RUN command.

Example

Running a Command File: Example

This example executes the command file bkup_db two times:

@bkup_db
RUN { @bkup_db }
