Hi, On 11gR1 is there a way to directly RMAN copy archived log files from primary database asm1 to standby database asm2 (both asm1 and asm2 have the same path names)? We are trying to avoid rman backup from asm1 to local disk1 and then again from local disk 1 to local disk 2 and finally to asm2. Thanks, -Suresh -- //www.freelists.org/webpage/oracle-l
