Why each option

This question tests knowledge of which RMAN settings can be persistently configured using the CONFIGURE command and stored in the RMAN repository. Not all backup options are available as persistent defaults.

ABackup retention policyCorrect

CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY is a standard persistent RMAN setting that controls how long backups are retained, either by recovery window or redundancy count, and is stored in the control file.

BDefault backup device typeCorrect

CONFIGURE DEFAULT DEVICE TYPE TO DISK or SBT is a persistent RMAN setting that determines whether backups go to disk or tape by default when no DEVICE TYPE clause is explicitly specified.

CDefault destinations for backupsCorrect

CONFIGURE CHANNEL DEVICE TYPE ... FORMAT and CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP FORMAT allow persistent configuration of default backup destinations, stored in the RMAN repository.

DMultiple backup device types for single backup

RMAN does not support a persistent configuration setting for using multiple device types simultaneously in a single backup operation - device type must be specified per channel or per backup command.

EDefault section size for backups

Default section size is not a persistent RMAN CONFIGURE option in the versions covered by this exam objective - section size is typically specified inline within the BACKUP command using the SECTION SIZE clause.

Concept tested: RMAN persistent configuration settings with CONFIGURE command
