I have a system which creates tons of temporary tables that are created, but these tables do not need to be recovered in the case of a restore. I was able to create a seperate tablespace, and point the reportwriter to that location. I cannot create a temporary tablespace since these tables need to exist for other processes after the process completes. I have set the reporting space to "No Logging".

When creating an RMAN backup strategy, is my only option to explicitly back up all the tablespaces I need (which would be all except the Reporting tablespace)? Or is there another feature which would more easily exclude this reporting tablespace from my backups?

You can exclude a specific tablespace.
