4.0 out of 5 stars
Very useful book for the DBA/SYSADMIN user - fits in pocket!
This book by no means replaces the (online) documentation that oracle provides, or a more complete RMAN book. But it shines when you want the syntax without carrying around a boat anchor of a book. You need a working knowlege of RMAN for this book to be useful. If you purchase this to learn RMAN, you will be disappointed. If you know, or are learning to use RMAN, it...

very handy to get the syntax
Useful to get the syntax in emergency. But not to get good knowledge on the subject. It is better to refer the technet documentation.

You need a working knowlege of RMAN for this book to be useful. If you purchase this to learn RMAN, you will be disappointed. If you know, or are learning to use RMAN, it is helpful. I like it because I can pop it in my back (or shirt) pocket. Half of the book is dedicated to syntax. The first half is a brief overview of the RMAN world. It is a 'Must Have' for anyone using RMAN. But you will need other documentation in addition. I have found the Oracle supplied documentation (on CD) very good. But it is not 'portable'.

This review is from: Oracle RMAN Pocket Reference (Kindle Edition)
The product description fails to mention this Oracle RMAN Pocket Reference is for Oracle versions 8 and 9. Shame on both Darl Kuhn and Scott Schulze for FAILING TO BE HONEST on what is being sold for $6.15. The "click to look inside" has a cover link but it does not show you the cover that says "Covers 9i" (see the customer image that I attached). All that would be needed is to mention the 8i/9i version information in the PRODUCT DESCRIPTION. And "no", I will not give O'Reilly $4.99 for DRM-free or PDF or any "future" updates.
