It has to do with your nls settings, however I find it always easier to
explicitly set the time using the to_date function rather than rely on nls
settings.

Subject: [Q] RMAN "set until time" syntax ??? 

We have ORACLE 10GR2 on LINUX server.  I am testing
RMAN function and found some syntax issue need help:

If I use "set until time
"to_date('2007-09-21:15:00:00','YYYY-MM-DD:hh24:mi:ss')";
it work fine.  But if I use "set until time
'2007-09-21:15:00:00';", I have error.  based on RMAN
guide "set until time '2007-09-21:15:00:00';" should
work.

Anyone know why?


=========== reference ===
setenv NLS_LANG american_america.us7ascii
setenv NLS_DATE_FORMAT 'YYYY-MM-DD:hh24:mi:ss'

RMAN> run {
2> set until time '2007-09-21:15:00:00';
3> restore database;
4> }

executing command: SET until clause
