Hi Guillaume,
We have been running the Oracle TDP for several years, and this has ALWAYS
been a problem. The backup objects are described by metadata BOTH in the
RMAN backup catalog and the TSM DB. Several things can cause the two DB's
to get out of sync, and then you have backup pieces left in
Also, once you EXCLUDE these files, they are marked INACTIVE.
When you do a restore, by default you only get ACTIVE files back.
So even if you do a full restore and there are backups of some of these

Yes, TSM DB restore is the same no matter if you are restoring from disk or
