Is it possible to restore from a backup set where the set is in a different disk location from where it was originally created. For example: replace script test_full_recovery { allocate channel d1 type disk format '/backup/df_%d_t%t_s%s_p%p'; allocate channel d2 type disk format '/backup2/df_%d_t%t_s%s_p%p'; restore database; ... } The backup sets were created in the /u17/backup and /u18/backup directories and the script give me the following error: RMAN-10035: exception raised in RPC: ORA-19624: operation failed, retry possible ORA-19505: failed to identify file "/u17/backup/df_DMS_t527180414_s4967_p1" ORA-27037: unable to obtain file status HP-UX Error: 2: No such file or directory Additional information: 3 ORA-06512: at "SYS.X$DBMS_BACKUP_RESTORE", line 925 RMAN-10031: ORA-19624 occurred during call to DBMS_BACKUP_RESTORE.RESTOREBACKUPPIECE Is there any way to tell RMAN that the backup set is now in a new location? This is Oracle8, but if it can't be done in Oracle8, can it be done in 9i? BTW, this IS just a test and not a real recovery.
