Run 8.1.7.4, 9.0.1 (Portal) and 9.2.0.4 from RMAN 9.2; catalog is 9.2 as well. Some options with 8.1.7 catalog and RMAN 9.2 were incompatible; don't know from here. In short: keep rman the same version as catalog -- Regards, Frank van Bortel ---------------------------------------------------------------- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.com ---------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe send email to: oracle-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx put 'unsubscribe' in the subject line. -- Archives are at //www.freelists.org/archives/oracle-l/ FAQ is at //www.freelists.org/help/fom-serve/cache/1.html -----------------------------------------------------------------
