@@ -54,6 +54 @@ Parameter | Data type | Default | Required | Description
-`p_tag` |  `VARCHAR2` |  — |  No |  A string that can be used to distinguish between backups to indicate the purpose or usage of backups, such as `incremental` or `daily`. You can specify up to 30 characters. Valid characters are `a-z`, `A-Z`, `0-9`, an underscore (`_`), a dash (`-`), and a period (`.`). The tag is not case-sensitive. RMAN always stores tags in uppercase, regardless of the case used when entering them. Tags don't need to be unique, so multiple backups can have the same tag. If you don't specify a tag, RMAN assigns a default tag automatically using the format `TAG`YYYYMMDDTHHMMSS``, where `YYYY` is the year, `MM` is the month, `DD` is the day, `HH` is the hour (in 24-hour format), `MM` is the minutes, and `SS` is the seconds. The date and time indicate when RMAN started the backup. For example, a backup with the default tag`TAG20190927T214517` indicates a backup that started on 2019-09-27 at 21:45:17. The `p_tag` parameter is supported for the following RDS for Oracle DB engine versions:
-
-  * Oracle Database 21c (21.0.0)
-  * Oracle Database 19c (19.0.0), using 19.0.0.0.ru-2021-10.rur-2021-10.r1 and higher
