Yes, I found FM quite useful on this (along with
Robert's book and metalink):

If your original host is unavailable, than I think it
becomes a DR scenario, where "duplicate" is
inappropriate. The basic steps are:
- restore spfile (depending on whether or not the
catalog is in use - from autobackup or normal
backupset)
- restore control file and mount the db
- restore/recover the rest
- open resetlogs

Since no MML is involved, the only difficult part
might be to make backups available to rman at the same
location as on the original host (NFS mount - if orig
host is still alive, "backup backupset", soft links,
etc. do the trick)

Thanks,
Boris Dali.
