Ah, I didn't fully read his example and assumed he was trying a restore.
Backups are not a problem.

It would appear that the RMAN control file or the recovery catalog thinks

that the backup you need to restore is sitting on disk somewhere and not
tape. ....

do the following command:

list backup of database summary; Is the device type DISK?? If it is, thats
why it's trying to goto disk to get those backupset pieces. How did these
get moved to tape? Manually or via RMAN?



I can run that command in the morning.
However, these backups were all made directly to tape via RMAN.
