The good news is that it is in fact RMAN that creates the backups (under the 
OEM scheduler), and RMAN is reliable in my experience.  But why not meet the 
management half way by suggesting that you move from shell scripts to RMAN but 
do your own scheduling?

Subject: RMAN with OEM poll


 
Hi,
 
 Look for opinions on running RMan from OEM.
 
We have a great system using shell scripts with sqlnet to do all flavor flavors 
of unix and windows. We recovery is basically two key punch simple. Lots of 
checks in the system and so on.
 
Now management says...lets redo it in OEM R2 because I can get nice reports 
from OEM. My first thought is that I don't like introducing another layer of 
dependency
to the recovery strategy.  
 
Management says.. by going to OEM we will save ourselves from creating code to 
maintain?  I haven't looked..but is this just marketing? Is OEM that good we 
can rest assured that we can recover 16 billion worth of database with just the 
black box solution?
 
To me, it's like here we go again... management wants a brilliant solution with 
no effort put into it or to support it. My spidey "sense" is tingling.
 
With your response...please indicate how  and how long you have setup your rman 
solution and 
as well as what level of backup expertise experience you feel you are at.  The 
reason for this is,  depending on the response... I may summarize the responses
and give my own marketing flash.
 
Times may have changed in the last year or so and maybe the recommendation from 
the backup experts is to use the "Backup" /"Restore" ...God help us...if we get 
the dreaded "Java Error....push button on mass fax resumes"

Thanks to all who replied, gmail was slow that day and I eventually stumbled 
across.
 
grep "\$Log: .*[\$]"
 
Which works with the "" although there is no reason I could not use "\".
 
Thanks,
Ethan
