hi

i have question.
i did such commands


1. RMAN -> backup incremental level 0 database;
2. SQLPLUS -> alter database enable block change tracking 
using file '/home/oracle/block_change_tracking.tr';
3. RMAN -> backup incremental level 1 cumulative database;
4. RMAN -> backup incremental level 1 cumulative database;
5. RMAN -> backup incremental level 1 cumulative database;



and for such order i noticed that block change tracking file wasn't used for any cumulative backup. for each cumulative backup was done full scan over database.

it was used after i did incremental level 0 backup, and again incremental 1 cumulative.

so question and concern is.

if i want this feature to be usefull i should enable it before my incremental level 0, or i should do incremental level 0 immediately after i enable it?
am i right?
