MY RMAN practices

RMAN BACKUP taken on different locations by using 'format' keyword. Here is how we can take rman backup in different locations:

RUN

DELETE NOPROMPT OBSOLETE;
CROSSCHECK BACKUP;
CROSSCHECK ARCHIVELOG ALL;
DELETE NOPROMPT EXPIRED BACKUP;
DELETE NOPROMPT EXPIRED ARCHIVELOG ALL;
ALLOCATE CHANNEL C1 DEVICE TYPE DISK MAXPIECESIZE 100M format 'C:\RMANBKP\%U';
ALLOCATE CHANNEL C2 DEVICE TYPE DISK MAXPIECESIZE 100M format 'C:\RMANBKP\%U';
