I am using the duplicate command in RMAN to duplicate a database to
another server.

I have not specified set until time but I wish to have to go to the last
night's backup which is run at 3:00 according to the crontab job.

When I recover without using any set until time I get errors that state
that there are missing log files.  When I copy over the existing archive
files from the production server they are at a much later release then
what is being requested during recovery of the "duplicate" database.

So - those archivelogs are not online.

Should I set the set until to get the hot backup from last night and
what should I set the time to - 3:00 a.m. or later??

Are those logs actually backed up?

How can I be sure that my database full backup gets all the necessary
logs so I can recover from the last night's backup?

Thanks,
Paula
