RMAN does come with a single server version of Legato that allows you to
backup to a local tape drive. Thats free. So, even out of the box, RMAN can
backup to local tape.
For those new to RMAN I strongly suggest you check out my Oracle9i RMAN
Backup and Recovery book. It walks you through all the steps of setting up
RMAN and then actually using it. It covers configuration of the various MML
interfaces into RMAN too.

NOTE: You only need a media manager if you are backing up to SBT tape.
If
you back up to disk (faster than tape) you only need rman and it comes
with
the rdbms.

Setting up RMAN is not that difficult ; You need to setup Media Manager
for Oracle. RMAN is quite robust for backup. Some DBAs are of the
openion that they will use RMAN for Restoring and use svrmgrl / sysdba
for recovery related stuff. Depends on various factors. Are you sure
you want Logical Standby and not Physical. Anyway it is better to have a
Standby setup just in case ...;
Backup Recovery 101 is good for RMAN though there is one by Robert
Freeman.
For Standby i suggest you read books/manuals and test it out.
In both the above cases, there is no substitute for trying out all
possibel combinations you can think of prior to implementing.
