Has anyone restored a database via RMAN from one node to another. The ORACLE_SID will be different and also the directory structure will be different. If so, can anyone provide some pointers. I've found a couple of documents on Metalink: 73912.1 and 73974.1 but they don't exactly cover my particular scenario. 9.2.0.4 on Solaris 2.8. PS This is also a RAC database.
