Hi List,

I am using RMAN to duplicate our live DB to another identical machine.  Full
On-line backups are taken 5 days a week (file is 25Gb on disk), each
one includes *all* archive logs.

I have been asked to see if we can use a different nights backup for the
duplication process, other than the last backup taken.  I can't find
anything on MetaLink and Rob Freemans book only mentions that Duplicate uses
the last good backup.

Is this possible?? If so how?


*Specs:*
*Oracle: 9.2.0.4 64-bit*
*O/S:    Solaris 2.8*


Many thanks
