As part of your overall data protection planning, plan restore operations for your Oracle RAC database.

Restore Destinations
The destination where you restore your data is determined by your restore objective. Generally, you perform an in-place or an out-of-place restore.
In-place restore operation
An in-place restore operation restores the database to the same path on the same client from which the database was backed up.
Out-of-place restore operation
An out-of-place restore operation restores the database to any one of the following destinations:
-
A different client from which the database was backed up
-
A different database on the same client from which the database was backed up
-
A different instance on the same client from which the database was backed up
